HYDROPHOBIC PEPTIDE TAGS - As tools in bioseparation and investigation of recombinant proteins.
This thesis describes the possibility of using hydrophobic peptide tags as tools for bioseparation and for the investigation of recombinant proteins. The hydrophobicity of a protein can easily be changed by minor modifications, such as fusions of tyrosine-containing peptides. The fusion tags may also increase both stability and expression of the fusion protein. Furthermore, a protein library with
