In this study, Escherichia coli MG27 was isolated from the River Nile and subjected to optimization studies to maximize the production of L-ASNase. ansB gene, encoding L-ASNase II from E. coli MG27, was cloned into pQE-30 expression vector and expressed in E. coli M15. The recombinant histidine-tagged L-ASNase II was purified to homogeneity by Ni{u2013}NTA affinity chromatography and displayed a single 36.0 kDa band on SDS-PAGE ER -
