All the previously suggested proteins are awesome candidates! Here are a few more in case you want to add some extra 'zing' to your curriculum:
- luciferase - magneto reactive protein(s) that can be isolated with strong magnets - spy-tag and spycatcher (covalently reactive proteins!) - split GFP components (react and create fluorescence where there was none) - dextransucrase (makes gels out of sucrose) - gelatinase (dissolves gel) - secreted thermolysin (followed by aspartame synthesis demo) - ruby-tag (rubredoxin) very dark brown, does not denature on gel - DHOD converts blue 2,6-dichloroindophenol into colorless reduced form that spontaneously reoxidizes back to blue in air And many others :) Artem On Wed, Jun 16, 2021, 6:19 PM P.
