Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Resilin is an elastic protein expected as a highly elastic biomaterial to replace synthetic rubbers. In this study, to obtain a novel highly elastic artificial polypeptide by genetic technology, several artificial genes encoding repetitive amino acid sequences of resilin were designed, synthesized, and transformed to Escherichia coli. Production conditions of objective polypeptides were investigated by cultivation of recombinant bacteria. The obtained polypeptides were readily isolated and purified by affinity chromatography as His-tag polypeptides.
