Expression and purification of tag-free SARS-CoV-2 RNA-dependent RNA polymerase in Escherichia coli

Summary: The RNA-dependent-RNA polymerase (RdRp) from SARS-CoV-2 is an important drug target because it is responsible for viral RNA genome replication. Efficient production of recombinant RdRp is important in screening antivirals to treat COVID-19. Here, we present our protocol for expression of ta...
