Cloning, expression and purification of recombinant streptokinase: partial characterization of the protein expressed in Escherichia coli

We cloned the streptokinase (STK) gene of Streptococcus equisimilis in an expression vector of Escherichia coli to overexpress the profibrinolytic protein under the control of a tac promoter. Almost all the recombinant STK was exported to the periplasmic space and recovered after gentle lysozyme dig...
