Expression of His-tagged Shigella IpaC in Arabidopsis.

Although the expression of histidine (His)-tagged proteins in bacteria is routine, few His-tagged proteins have been expressed in plants, and no His-tagged proteins from bacterial pathogens have been expressed in plants, to our knowledge. Here, we demonstrate expression of the Shigella flexneri invasion plasmid antigen, IpaC, in Arabidopsis thaliana. S.
