AgBP2

Description

AgBP2 is a typical silver-binding peptide consisting of 12 amino acids. The silver-binding protein AgBP2 was selected from a combinatorial peptide display library and it presents a higher Ag(I) affinity value (Ka=\\6.30 \pm0.5\cdot10^{7}\\) than many other typical silver-binding proteins, such as Ag4 and AgP35.

AgBP2 captures silver ions and paves the way for a new approach to synthesizing silver nanoparticles which accelerates extracellular electron transfer.
