Expression of soluble moloney murine leukemia virus-reverse transcriptase in Escherichia coli BL21 star (DE3) using autoinduction system.

Autoinduction systems in Escherichia coli can control the production of proteins without the addition of a particular inducer. In the present study, we optimized the heterologous expression of Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus derived Reverse Transcriptase (MMLV-RT) in E. coli.

Optimized expression of large fragment DNA polymerase I from in expression system.

DNA polymerase is a DNA polymerase derived from has a strand-displacement activity, and is used in loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) for rapid detection of COVID-19. Despite its potential to be employed in the detection of COVID-19, using commercially available enzymes is not economically feasible. The use of noncommercial enzyme for routine use is desirable.
