Amid Biosciences presents the BirA Biotin Ligase, expressed as a maltose-binding protein (MBP) fusion in E. coli cells. This versatile enzyme is engineered with a dual 6xHis-MBP tag at the N-terminus, allowing for easy purification and removal post-biotinylation using Ni-NTA or amylose resin columns. Ideal for precise and efficient protein biotinylation, this BirA biotin ligase is crucial for applications requiring selective labeling of proteins. Whether you're performing in vitro or in vivo biotinylation, our BirA enzyme offers reliable performance and ease of use for all your molecular biology needs.
