Description

Streptavidin Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single polypeptide chain containing 148 amino acids (37-159) and having a molecular mass of 15.6kDa. Streptavidin is fused to a 25 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic

Protein Background

Streptavidin is a tetrameric protein secreted by Streptomyces avidinii which binds firmly to biotin. Streptavidin is widely used in molecular biology through its unique high affinity for the vitamin biotin. The dissociation constant (Kd) of the biotin-str

Expression host

E.coli.

Reagent Appearance
