Abstrakt: Escherichia coli is the workhorse of the structural biology lab. In addition to routine cloning and molecular biology, E. coli can be used as a factory for the production of recombinant membrane proteins. Purification of homogeneous samples of membrane protein expressed in E. coli is a significant bottleneck for researchers, and the protocol we present here for the overexpression and purification of membrane proteins in E. coli will provide a solid basis to develop lab- and protein-specific protocols for your membrane protein of interest. We additionally provide extensive notes on the purification process, as well as the theory surrounding principles of purification.
