E. coli production of a multi-disulfide bonded SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.5 RBD exhibiting native-like biochemical and biophysical properties

Low-cost bacterial production of the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron spike protein holds significant potential in expediting the development of therapeutics against COVID-19. However, RBD contains eight cysteines forming four disulfide bonds, and expression in E. coli using s...
