Microbial transglutaminase (MTG) is widely used as a protein crosslinking enzyme. Pro-transglutaminase from Streptomyces mobaraensis was expressed in Escherichia coli as a fusion protein carrying a C-terminal histidine tag (pro-MTG-His6) under high-density culture. A new method of on-column activation was designed for production. According to SDS-PAGE, 88.9% of pro-MTG-His6 was transferred to mature MTG-His6 with storage stabilization.
