Abstract excerpt
As a useful reagent for biotechnological applications, a scaffold protein needs to be as stable as possible to ensure longer lifetimes. We have developed archaeal extremophilic proteins from the “7 kDa DNA-binding” family as scaffolds to derive affinity proteins (Affitins). In this study, we evaluated a rational structure/sequence-guided approach to stabilize an Affitin derived from Sac7d by transferring its...
