*  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 in yeast and secretion into the medium.Here are also several systems available. Check out the current catalogues of molecular biology supply.
*  Expression in yeast [http://strucbio.biologie.uni-konstanz.de/ccp4wiki/index.php/Expression_systems]and secretion into the medium. Here are also several systems available. Check out the current catalogues of molecular biology supply. E.g. ''Pichia pastoris'' from  [http://www.invitrogen.com Invitrogen].
* 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.
