摘要
Multimilligram quantities of active and pure GluR2-S1S2, the recombinant ligand binding core of the AMPA-sensitive GluR2 receptor, were produced by preparative folding of the solubilized inclusion bodies expressed in 11 of Escherichia coli cell culture. The biochemical properties and biological activities of folded protein were characterized and the protein construct was optimized for three-dimensional structural studies.
