Methods

Summary

1. DNA synthesis of the NFAR-1B gene which is inserted into a pET15 expression plasmid with a His 6 tag on the N-Terminus followed by a thrombin cleavage site.

2. Transform into competent cells

3. Plate out on Amp-agar to grow colonies

4. Induce to express the peptide.

5. Purify by chromatography

6. Run SDS Page electrophoresis
