ScCBD_cex'V1 : a Cellulose Binding Domain that enables the fixation of proteins to Cellulose

Description

ScCBD_cex'V1 (Cellulose Binding Domain) is a peptide that has a huge affinity for bacterial cellulose. When fused with another protein, ScCBD_cex'V1 enables the fixation of the protein on the bacterial cellulose.

Construction

ScCBD-Cex'V1 was synthesised and its nucleotide sequence optimised for synthesis and expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This protein is used in fusion with a yellow chromoprotein (fwYellow) in order to color the bacterial cellulose in yellow: BBa_K5143023
