Figure 2From: Expression and purification of the p75 neurotrophin receptor transmembrane domain using a ketosteroid isomerase tagPurification of the TM domain of p75NTR. (A) The construct used for protein expression. (B) Expression of the protein fused with KSI. Total is the total cell lysate after induction, S is the cell lysate supernatant after centrifugation at 40,000 × g for 20 min at 4°C and P is the pellet after centrifugation and resuspension in the urea buffer. (C) Thrombin digestion of the purified protein. p75TM indicates the TM domain of p75NTR. (D) SDS-PAGE analysis of purified p75TM from gel filtration chromatography in a buffer containing 20 mM sodium phosphate, pH 6.5, 2 mM DTT and 0.1% DPC.Back to article page
