Figure 1. Screening for improved intermolecular complementing PA variants.

Figure 1

(A) Schematic representation of PA oligomers, with each LF-binding site consisting of 3 subsites located on adjacent PA monomers. While a heptamer is shown, the same interactions occur within octamers. (B) Screening workflow to select improved intermolecular complementing PA variants. Unmethylated expression plasmids were isolated from dam and dcm E. coli SCS110, because only unmethylated plasmids are able to transform B. anthracis. BH480 transformants were grown and supernates assayed for protein expression and activity.
