Hi Gloria, I have extensively used SUMO and echoing Artem's sentiment. SUMO has worked well in my hands for most instances. The additional benefit is that, assuming you use His-SUMO-target, following His-tag affinity purification, you can cleave the SUMO tag, followed by reverse IMAC (i.e., collect the flow-thru) to isolate ~≥95% pure target before SEC.
More recently, I only use the SUMO* mutant for *E. coli* and eukaryotic systems, for simplicity's sake. Expression and purification of the protease in-house is easy to do and there are numerous publications on the topic. pET SUMO is how I've typically used the system (usually pET28).
