5-Enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate (EPSP) synthase, the product of theEscherichia coli aroAgene, has been overproduced inE.coliBL21(λDE3) under the control of the T7 gene10promoter and ribosome binding site, to a level of ˜50% of total cell protein. EPSP synthase is the primary target of the post-emergence herbicide, glyphosate, commonly known as RoundupTM. A simple two step purification is described, which results in 99% pure homogeneous protein (as determined by PAGE). The integrity of the protein has been compared with previously characterized protein from.E.coliAB2829(pKD501) by determination of its kinetic parameters, N-terminal protein and DNA sequences, amino acid analysis and13C-NMR spectroscopy. This new overproducing strain readily provides the gram quantities of highly pure protein required for NMR studies of the active site and the development of novel time-resolved solid-state NMR techniques currently underway in this laboratory.
