Abstract:One of the main antigen that can be used for serological testing is the nucleocapsid (N) which is the most abundant viral-derived protein in SARS-CoV-2 where this virus can cause COVID19 disease. The aim of this study was to develop the SARS-CoV-2 N recombinant protein using Escherichia coli expression system. A total of 1,089 nucleotides encoding 362 amino acids of SARS-CoV-2 N was cloned to pET-14b vector. The plasmid then expressed in E. coli BL21 (DE3) and induced with 1.0 mM IPTG (Isopropyl-β-d-1-thiogala… Show more
