Abstract excerpt
The affinity system based on the artificial peptide ligand Strep-tag® II and engineered tetrameric streptavidin, known as Strep-Tactin®, offers attractive applications for the study of recombinant proteins, from detection and purification to functional immobilization. To further improve binding of the Strep-tag II to streptavidin we have subjected two protruding loops that shape its ligand pocket for the peptide...
