title: A single step purification for recombinant proteins. Characterization of a microtubule associated protein (MAP 2) fragment which associates with the type II cAMP-dependent protein kinase.
abstract: A 167 base pair DNA cassette has been constructed to facilitate the detection and purification of recombinant proteins. This cassette, kfc, encodes three distinct peptide units: a phosphorylation site for the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), called kemptide, a factor Xa cleavage site, and a calmodulin-binding peptide. Expressed kfc fusion proteins can be purified from bacterial lysates in one step by affinity chromatography on calmodulin-agarose using EGTA as eluant. As a test of this system, we describe the expression, purification and characterization of the PKA binding domain of the microtubule associated protein (MAP 2).
