* Expression targeted to the periplasm. Several vectors for ''E.coli'' are available, e.g. containing the signal sequence of OmpA or for expression as MalE fusion. | * Expression targeted to the periplasm.

* Expression in ''E.coli'' strains with defects in maintaining the low redox potential of the cytoplasm. Strains carrying mutations in thioredoxin reductase (trxB<sup>-</sup>, ADA494) or glutathione reductase (gor<sup>-</sup>) or both (Origami strain) allow disulfide formation in the cytoplasm. Even expression of multiple Ig domains is possible in the Origami strain. | * Expression in ''E.coli'' strains with defects in maintaining the low redox potential of the cytoplasm.
