pGTM-Sumo2-HepC-NS3_4A_TEE
(Plasmid #254049)

• Purpose: Expresses Hepatitis C Virus NS3 and an NS4A fragment on a polyistronic message for E. coli expression
• Depositing Lab: Gaetano Montelione
• Publication: A PA CLAN PROTEASE CROSS-INHIBITION SCREEN (unpublished)

Backbone

• Vector backbone: pET15Sumo2_NESG
• Backbone manufacturer: Novagen/Northeast Structural Genomics Consortium
• Backbone size w/o insert (bp): 5680
• Total vector size (bp): 6323
• Modifications to backbone: An N-terminal 6xHis tag fused to the Smt3 gene (Sumo) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a purification/solubility enhancement cassette. BsaI sites are included in the cloning polylinker for scarless cloning and the production of a native, mature protein after cleavage from the Sumo fusion by Sumo protease (Ulp1).
