Usage
The search for new approaches for developing antimicrobial surfaces is a challenge of great urgency to prevent and control microbial growth on surfaces. Our team design of a new, simple and general tool for creating antimicrobial surfaces, based on use a hydrophobin protein BslA to replaced the hydrophobin Vmh2 from Pleurotusostreatus to the human antimicrobial peptide
Biology
LL-37 is a C-terminal cleavage product of Cathelicidin peptide HCAP-18, which can directly kill bacteria, fungi and viruses.
Design Consideration
The construction includes:
LL37 is fused with BslA with a GS linker（GGTGGTGGCGGCAGCGGCGGAGGCGGTAGT）
