This protocol is used to assay the effect of protein over-expression on fitness of E. coli . It is based on a plasmid expression of a protein of interest from an arabinose-regulated pBAD promoter followed by the measurement of the intracellular protein abundance by Western blot along with the measurement of growth parameters of E. coli cell expressing this protein.
