The His-tag as a decoy modulating preferred orientation in cryoEM

The His-tag is a widely used affinity tag that facilitates purification by means of affinity chromatography of recombinant proteins for functional and structural studies. We show here that His-tag presence affects how coproheme decarboxylase interacts with the air-water interface during grid prepara...
