[30] - Purification of Branched-Chain Keto Acid Dehydrogenase Regulator from Pseudomonas putida
2000
: BkdR can be isolated in nearly pure form as a tetramer by this procedure, which involves hyperexpressing bkdR from a plasmid, purification by chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B, heparin-Sepharose CL-6B, and dialysis to precipitate BkdR. BkdR is relatively insoluble in aqueous buffers but can be kept in solution in buffer with 50% (v/v) glycerol and 0.2 M NaCl. Cultures of E. coli DH5 alpha (pJRS119) should be maintained at 30 degrees to promote plasmid stability. Because BkdR is prone to form intermolecular disulfide bonds, buffers for SDS-PAGE should contain fresh 0.5% (v/v) 2-mercaptoethanol.
