Vectors for the routine production of single proteins in E. coli.

The vectors pMCSG7 and pMCSG19 are used at Argonne National Laboratory for the routine, high-throughput production of single proteins. Soluble proteins are produced from pMCSG7, which appends a his-tag followed by a TEV protease cleavage site, and poorly soluble proteins are made from pMCSG19. In the presence of TVMV protease (from pRK1037, see David Waugh's web site), pMCSG19 generates untagged MBP and his-tagged target protein. The vector pMCSG9 generates proteins appended with his-tagged MBP followed by a TEV protease site. Both the MBP vectors can improve the solubility of some proteins.
