The cDNA encoding the BTN2A1 B30.2 domain was cloned into the pET28a vector with an N-terminal or C-terminal 6×His tag. Overexpression of the BTN2A1 B30.2 domain was induced in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) cells by 1 mM isopropyl β-d-1-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) (Solarbio) at 18 °C for 24 h. Cells were collected by centrifuging, resuspended and lysed by sonication, and centrifuged at 20,000g for 1 h. The supernatant was collected and incubated with Ni-NTA resin (GE Healthcare), and was then eluted with a buffer containing 20 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl and 500 mM imidazole. The eluent was incubated overnight with TEV protease for 6×His tag cleavage, purified by Ni-NTA resin or further purified by DEAE Sepharose chromatography (GE Healthcare). Finally, the protein was dialysed against a storage buffer containing 20 mM HEPES pH 7.5 and 150 mM NaCl. The purified proteins were monitored at all stages of the purification process using SDS–PAGE and visualized by Coomassie blue staining.
All BTN2A1 B30.2-domain mutants were generated using a standard PCR mutagenesis strategy, overexpressed and purified in the same manner as for the WT protein.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
