Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed a technology to control protein aggregation by adding a short solubility-controlling peptide tag (SCP tag) to the termini of two model proteins, BPTI and ED3, using recombinant DNA technology. We found that an SCP tag consisting of 5 Ile not only oligomerized the proteins into soluble aggregates but also increased immunogenicity by more than 200-fold compared to that of the wild type.
