Dear ALL;

    Firstly I'd like to thank folks for the various suggestions to handle the 
degradation of MBP fusion protein.

    According to these suggestions, I have tried shortening the linker between 
MBP and target protein.

    We can get decent yield of the full-length protein now.

    We still have a little question about the expression.

     Using BL21(De3 ) star cells at 37 degree, we got good soluble expression 
of the MBP fusion protein. However, the majority of the proteins were existing 
as soluble aggregates and only a small protion of proteins was purified as 
monomers. 

     Does anyone have the experience to increase the yield of the monomeric 
proteins?

      Thanks a lot,

Jerry McCully
