Maybe GST would work. It's a single-step purification from bacteria which
can be done easily in two days, yielding milligrams of pure protein from one
liter of bacterial culture. If you prepare it at room temperature, yields
will probably drop slightly, but who cares. Affinity is assayed photo-
metrically with Dichloronitrobenzol plus Glutathione.
Just a suggestion,
