Description
pMAL-pIII is a plasmid that contains a gene for the periplasmic expression of Maltose Binding Protein (MBP). This plasmid is sold as a control plasmid to ensure that a lab's expression system is working properly. We are using it for the expressed purpose of producing MBP. We are using MBP to template the growth of bioconjugated gold nanoparticles.
