Efficient expression of the yeast metallothionein gene in Escherichia coli.

T Berka1, A Shatzman, J Zimmerman, J Strickler, M Rosenberg.   

Abstract

The yeast metallothionein gene CUP1 was cloned into a bacterial expression system to achieve efficient, controlled expression of the stable, unprocessed protein product. The Escherichia coli-synthesized yeast metallothionein bound copper, cadmium, and zinc, indicating that the protein was functional. Furthermore, E. coli cells expressing CUP1 acquired a new, inducible ability to selectively sequester heavy metal ions from the growth medium.
