Petduet vector

Manufactured by Merck Group

The PETDUET vector is a genetic engineering tool used for the expression of recombinant proteins. It is designed to facilitate the simultaneous expression of multiple proteins in the same host cell. The PETDUET vector provides a dual-promoter system that allows for the co-expression of two target genes, enabling the study of protein-protein interactions or the production of multi-subunit protein complexes.

Producing Holo-Acyl Carrier Protein

Expression and purification of holo-ACP has been described previously [11 (link)]. Briefly, the acyl-carrier-protein and holo-(acyl-carrier-protein) synthase genes were cloned into a pETDUET vector (EMD-Millipore). Both proteins were expressed simultaneously following the same steps as FabD expression (above). After lysing and centrifuging the cells the clarified lysate was applied to an 8 ml nickel column (Qiagen) and an imidazole gradient was run from 0–500 mM imidazole in buffers containing 20 mM Tris-HCl, 500 mM sodium chloride, pH 8.1. Fractions containing holo-ACP were diluted to reduce sodium chloride to 100 mM and loaded onto a 110 ml Q-Sepharose column. A linear gradient from 200–600 mM potassium chloride was applied to the column and the holo-ACP eluted around 500 mM potassium chloride. Fractions containing ACP were concentrated and exchanged into a buffer containing 25 mM MOPS, 100 mM sodium chloride, 1 mM DTT, pH 7.1 using a Superdex S75 column (GE). Fractions containing holo-ACP were concentrated using a 3 kDa amicon filter unit and stored at −80°C in 10% glycerol. The ACP extinction coefficient used for quantification was 1490 M−1cm−1.

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.
