The study of phytoplasma membrane protein interactions with host cell proteins is crucial to understand the life cycle of these unculturable microorganisms within their hosts. A step by step protocol for the heterologous expression of phytoplasma membrane proteins in Escherichia coli is described, together with a procedure to purify a suitable quantity of fusion antigen for successive application in the study of phytoplasma-host interactions.

Abstract

The study of phytoplasma membrane protein interactions with host cell proteins is crucial to understand the life cycle of these unculturable microorganisms within their hosts. A step by step protocol for the heterologous expression of phytoplasma membrane proteins in Escherichia coli is described, together with a procedure to purify a suitable quantity of fusion antigen for successive application in the study of phytoplasma-host interactions.
