Inducible Expression of Histidine-Tagged Ricin Toxin A Chain in <i>E. coli</i>
Source: Becker, B., et al. A Simple Fluorescence-based Reporter Assay to Identify Cellular Components Required for Ricin Toxin A Chain (RTA) Trafficking in Yeast. J. Vis. Exp. (2017)This video demonstrates the inducible expression of His-tagged ricin toxin A chain (RTA) in Escherichia coli. It outlines the steps involved in the selective culturing of bacteria transformed with a recombinant expression plasmid, induction of His-tagged RTA expression, and preparation of the bacteria for further analysis.
