Description

Streptavidin [1,2] is a tetrameric protein of 52.8kDa isolated from the bacterium Streptomyces avidinii.

Streptavidin is used in biotechnologies and especially in diagnostic assays for its very high affinity for biotin. Indeed, this corresponds to a noncovalent interaction that enables an irreversible and very specific bond between biological macromolecules.

BBa_K1934070 contains the coding sequence of streptavidin as a BioBrick part. Be careful, you will need to put this sequence under the control of a promoter, RBS and terminator in order to produce the protein.
