From: Cleavage of the moaX-encoded fused molybdopterin synthase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis is necessary for activity

Figure 5

Western blot analysis of MoaXFL in E. coli . Included as a positive control is protein extract from M. smegmatis expressing moaX from the same system. The correct 26.5 kDa band corresponding to un-cleaved MoaX is observed in both organisms. However, the 17.8 kDa cleavage product corresponding to the MoaE component of MoaX is not observed in E. coli, which displays a larger (~20 kDa) band.
