Abstract: BIN2 is a kind of Ser/Thr protein kinase,and plays important roles in BR signal transduction pathway. In order to obtain the active and tag-free BIN2 protein,the BIN2 gene was cloned into the prokaryotic expression vector pPAL8 to obtain BIN2-pPAL8 expression vector. The correct plasmid BIN2-pPAL8 was transformed into E.coli expression strain BL21(DE3). After exploring the proper induction conditions,the 51 kD eXact-BIN2 protein was successfully induced and purified using eXact purification system. The high-quality and tag-free BIN2 protein was obtained through cleaving the eXact tag. The purified BIN2 protein is highly active,which could phosphorylate MBP-BZR1 in vitro.

Key words: BIN2, phosphorylation, protein kinase, protein purification
