Abstract
This report provides a purification method for the two proteins, 51 kDa and 33 kDa, both encoded by the same mcrB gene of the McrBC restriction system in Escherichia coli K-12. The two proteins were produced in large quantity using a T7 expression system and copurified to near homogeneity by DEAE-Sepharose and Affi-Gel blue column chromatography. The N-terminal amino acid sequences of these purified McrB proteins were the same as those predicted from the mcrB DNA sequence by Ross et al. [J. Bacteriol. 171 (1989b) 1974–1981]. The 33-kDa protein totally overlaps the C-terminal part of the 51-kDa protein.
