Key Takeaways MBP is the most effective general-purpose solubility enhancer , improving soluble expression 23x more often than other tags in systematic comparisons SUMO offers the cleanest cleavage (native N-terminus after Ulp1/SENP removal) with meaningful solubility enhancement at a fraction of MBP's size GST dimerizes a feature or a problem depending on your downstream application Tag removal often causes precipitation : ~30% of proteins that are soluble as fusions aggregate after cleavage, so plan for this upfront The "right" fusion partner depends on your protein's specific problems : PTM requirements, disulfide bonds, size, and downstream application should drive the choice Why Fusion Partners Work The Problem They Solve Many recombinant proteins fail to fold properly in E
