Description
This is a short peptide of 15 amino acids designed to bind with high affinity to silica and silica-like particles, designed as a tag to be attached to the C-terminus of polypeptides. This part was originally designed to be conjugated to the C-terminal of Ice Nucleation Protein allowing extracellular expression of the binding region.
Notes
The sequence was codon optomised for E.Coli expression.
