[DIYbio] Re: More beginner questions

Regarding purification look up for his-tagging and nickel column purification: it is not too difficult and if you get the solutions needed it would say it is DIYable.
The classical way uses a column and a detector for the pH fraction with your protein. You could hack a column, however keep in mind that you can also perform the whole purification procedure in a falcon tube and just using a centrifuge (and usually it gives better results).
As long as you are purifying the same protein you can re-use the same sephadex beads (when you read the protocol you'll understand what they are).

Starting to develop a keen interest in this topic.  First post.  

Let's say I have a viable bacterium (with my protein of interest inserted into a plasmid) and i inoculate a suitable growth media with my e. coli.  

1. Do I need to anything special to ensure that my protein of interest gets expressed?  
2. After the growth phase has run its course, how to i extract my protein of interest?  (I assume there's not just one way, just interested in approaches to purification)

Thanks!
