Production of Circularly Permuted Caspase-2 for Affinity Fusion-Tag Removal: Cloning, Expression in <i>Escherichia coli</i>, Purification, and Characterization

Caspase-2 is the most specific protease of all caspases and therefore highly suitable as tag removal enzyme creating an authentic N-terminus of overexpressed tagged proteins of interest. The wild type human caspase-2 is a dimer of heterodimers generated by autocatalytic processing which is required...
