Characterization of putative methyltransferase MT420 in <i>Trypanosoma brucei.</i>

Abstract

Localization and characterization of putative mitochondrial methzltransferase acc. No.: Tb10.6k15.0440 in Trypanosoma brucei was performed. Employed molecular methods included immunofluorescence, sub-cellular fractionation and tandem affinity purification. Protein was overexpressed in an E. coli expression system, using an in-fusion expression vector pOPINM with maltose binding protei (MBP) tag.
