Abstract: | Using subcellular fractionation and Western blot methods, we have shown that AcsD, one of the proteins encoded by the Acetobacter
cellulose synthase (acs) operon, is localized in the periplasmic region of the cell. AcsD protein was heterologously expressed
in Escherichia coli and purified using histidine tag affinity methods. The purified protein was used to obtain rabbit polyclonal antibodies.
The purity of the subcellular fractions was assessed by marker enzyme assays. |
