Cp19k : a barnacle cement protein used as a bioglue, optimised for Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Description
Barnacle, a marine organism, easily stick to underwater matrices through the secretion of various proteins and forming cement complexes. The protein complex for barnacle, Cp19k plays a key role in interfacial adhesion. Adhesion strenght : 2.2 mJ/m².
Construction
The Cp19k gene was synthesised and its nucleotide sequence optimised for synthesis and expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This protein is used in fusion with spider silk protein as a bioglue, to improve its adhesive properties : BBa_K5143003
