FIGURE 2.
Overproduction of endolysin P28 in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) cells. Shown is SDS-PAGE (15%) of the cellular proteins from 80 μL cultures of bacteria. The gel was stained by Coomassie brilliant blue R-250 to visualize the bands. E. coli BL21 (DE3; pET-26b-ORF8) before induction (lane 1) and 6 h after induction (1 mM IPTG; lane 2). The overexpressed oligohistidine-tagged endolysin P28 was purified (lane 3). M, molecular masses of reference proteins (Thermo Scientific; in kilodaltons).
