Research Abstract |
The final goal of this study is to develop a sensor for detection of pathogenic virus in water. In this study, we synthesized virus-binding proteins(VBP) and fluorophore. VBP were produced by genetically-modified E. coli. The SDS-PAGE profile showed the extracted soluble proteins from E. coli cells were VBP of which the estimated molecular weight is 57 kDa. We could also synthesize fluorophore(4, 4-difluoro-4-bora-3a, 4a-diaza-s-indacene) in our laboratory
