The genes encoding the His- and GST-tagged TatD-like DNase of P. berghei (PBANKA_0201800) were cloned into the pET-28a and pGEX-4T-1 vectors, respectively (Invitrogen), and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3), as described in our earlier study (Chang et al., 2016 (link)). His- and GST-tagged recombinant proteins were purified using the His GraviTrapTM system (GE Healthcare) and the Glutathione SepharoseTM 4B system (GE Healthcare), respectively, according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Purified proteins were analyzed with SDS-PAGE and Western blots before further experiments.
