+ | == Function == | ||
+ | '''Maltose-binding protein''' (MBP) or '''ABC maltose transporter''' is part of the maltose/maltodextrin system in ''E. coli'' which is responsible of the catabolism of maltodextrin. MBP binds maltodextrin when the latter diffuses into the periplasm and passes it to proteins involved in active transport<ref>PMID:10452611</ref>. | ||
- | + | == Relevance == | |
+ | MBP is widely used in molecular biology as it adds to the solubility of the proteins expressed in ''E. coli'' by being fused to them. The MBP-fusion protein can be purified by binding it to an amylose column followed by elution with maltose<ref>PMID:21125392</ref>. | ||
