Characterization of TF expressed in E. coli. The transframe (TF, also known as p6*) domain of Pol was expressed in E. coli with a C-terminal His-tag. a Purified TF was subjected to size exclusion chromatography on a Yarra SEC-2000 column as described under “Materials and Methods”. Elution of TF was followed at 280 nm, and confirmed by Western blotting with anti-TF antibodies. The apparent molecular mass of TF was deduced from its relative elution volume Kav (inset). b CD spectra of TF at 20 °C and 90 °C
