Fig. 2From: Intracellular delivery of messenger RNA by recombinant PP7 virus-like particles carrying low molecular weight protamineExpression of recombinant 2PP7-Protamine-GFP VLPs in E. coli. a Expression of 2PP7-Protamine and 2PP7-Protamine-GFP VLPs in the supernatant of BL21 (DE3) after sonication. Lanes of BL21 (DE3) carrying each plasmid are designated as follows: lane 1, plasmid pETDuet-2PP7-Protamine-GFP with IPTG added; lane 2, plasmid pETDuet-2PP7-Protamine without IPTG added; lane 3, pETDuet-2PP7-Protamine without IPTG added; lane 4, pETDuet-2PP7-Protamine with IPTG added; lane 5, pETDuet-2PP7 with IPTG added. b-d Purification of the VLPs. The peaks of the target proteins are marked by red arrowsBack to article page
