Enzymatic synthesis of poly(ε-caprolactone) in monocationic and dicationic ionic liquids.

abstract：:Fusion expression is a common practice for recombinant protein production. Some fusion tags confer solubility on the target protein whereas others provide affinity handles that facilitate purification. However, the tag usually needs to be removed from the final product, which involves using expensive proteases or haza...
