Research abstract
THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO CONSTRUCT A NOVEL EXPRESSION VECTOR SYSTEM WHICH WILL FACILITATE INEXPENSIVE MASS PRODUCTION AND PURIFICATION OF COMMERCIALLY IMPORTANT ENZYMES. THIS WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY PRODUCING A NOVEL FUSION PROTEIN WHICH CAN BE READILY PURIFIED TO HOMOGENEITY BY A SIMPLE AFFINITY CHROMATOGRAPHY STEP. THIS VECTOR IS INTENDED TO SUPPLANT CURRENT FUSION PROTEIN VECTORS BY REDUCING THE COST OF PRODUCTION AND PURIFICATION, AND YIELDING A PRODUCT OF SUPERIOR PURITY AND ACTIVITY.
