GELS FROM HUSK PROTEINS

摘要：

Fibroin, which is the structural component of the silk, is renowned for its use in the field of biomedical engineering. However, it has been reported to be allergic in some patients. Hence, a hypoallergenic alternative is required to be explored. Here, we examine the chemical properties of possible analogs of silk from rice and compare these properties to the previous studies using bioinformatics tools. The new data significantly add to the foundation for examining the relation between sequences, predicted structures and the observed chemical properties, thereby outlining the potential applications.
