Production and purification of recombinant DP1B silk-like protein in plants
2004-05-01
Abstract excerpt
Spider dragline silk of Nephila clavipes consists of two highly repetitive proteins, spidroin 1 and spidroin 2. To develop a plant platform for production of recombinant silk-like protein, two plant-optimized DP1B genes were synthesized to mimic spidroin 1. DP1B-8P encodes for a 64 kD DP1B silk-like protein and DP1B-16P for a 127 kD DP1B silk-like protein. Both genes have been introduced into Arabidopsis for leaf-...
