title: High expression of human amelogenin in E. coli.
abstract: A human cDNA, encoding for the 175-amino-acid human amelogenin, was prepared by RT PCR from tooth bud mRNA and sub-cloned into pGEX-KG expression plasmid for over-expression in E. coli. The expressed protein was characterized by SDS-PAGE Western blotting, and N-terminal amino acid sequencing.
