INTRODUCTION
A lytic infection by a recombinant bacteriophage is established in soft agarose. Following induced expression, the recombinant fusion protein is recovered from the infected cells.
MATERIALS
E. coli strain Y1090hsdR
This strain is available from the ATCC (www.atcc.org) and is maintained on LB-agar plates containing 50 µg/ml ampicillin.
Bacteriophage
gt11 recombinant
