Figure 1From: Batch production of a silk-elastin-like protein in E. coli BL21(DE3): key parameters for optimisationSchematic representation of the SELP-59-A construct. The polymer contains 9 repeats of a monomeric unit which itself consists of 5 repeats of the silk consensus sequence GAGAGS (S5, green) linked to 9 repeats of the elastin-like sequence VPAVG (E9, red). NH2 and COOH correspond to the amino and carboxy termini, respectively.Back to article page
