Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to methods for generation of high molecular ordered fibrilar structures. More particularly, the method of the invention utilizes CBD's (cellulose binding domain) ability to form dimers for directing ordered assembly of fibrous proteins such as silk proteins into super-molecular fibrilar structures. The invention further provides fibrilar structures such as fibers and articles comprising said fibrilar structures.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for generating high molecular ordered fibrilar structures by directing ordered assembly of fibrous proteins, the method comprising: a. providing at least one fibrous protein monomer selected from the group consisting of spider-silk, resilin, elastin, silk-worm silk, collagen and mussel byssus protein; b. providing at least one heterologous cellulose binding domain (CBD); c. attaching said at least one fibrous protein monomer provided in st…
