LITERATURE
DNA fragment encoding human enzyme is amplified by PCR and subcloned into the pET28a-LIC vector downstream of the polyhistidine coding region. Enzyme is expressed in the Escherichia coli BL21-Codon Plus(DE3)-RIL strain by the addition of 1 mM isopropyl1-thio-beta-D-galactopyranoside. The N-terminally truncated SpmSyn mutants are generated by PCR and subcloned into the pET28a-LIC vector.
