Engineering of physicochemical properties and quaternary structure assemblies of avidin and streptavidin, and characterization of avidin related proteins
Avidin is a tetrameric glycoprotein found in chicken egg-white. It binds a water soluble vitamin, biotin, with the highest known protein-ligand non-covalent interaction in nature. Streptavidin a protein found in bacteria, is structurally and functionally analogous to avidin. Both avidin and streptav...
