Poly(Nepsilon-trifluoroacetyl-L-lysine) was used as a model solute to investigate the potential of nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) for the characterization of synthetic organic polymers. The information obtained by NACE was compared to that derived from size exclusion chromatography (SEC) experiments, and

L-Lysine cyclodeaminase from Streptomyces pristinaespiralis was heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli, isolated to 90% purity after two purification steps and characterised. The size of the isolated recombinant enzyme was in agreement with the theoretical size calculated from the corresponding gene.
