Abstract: The article by Kukolj et al. [l] claims to present "the first purification of the DNA binding, regulatory protein Ner from bacteriophage Mu". We would like to point out that essentially the same study was published by us almost one year ago in a paper in Gene entitled 'Purification and characterization of the DNA-binding protein Ner of bacteriophage Mu' [2]. Further, it might be of interest to the readers of FEBS Letters to note that our expiession and purification protocol yielded 150 mg pure Protein from 1.5 liters of culture [2], whereas Kukolj et al. [I] report only 0.7 mg pure protein from 10 liters of culture.
