  • Compositions and methods relating to elutable carbohydrate-binding proteins
    Patent number: 8288337
    Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided for creating and identifying mutant carbohydrate-binding proteins that reversibly bind to carbohydrate substrates under conditions where the native protein remains bound. Examples of modified chitin-binding domains are provided which can be eluted from chitin in the presence of a reducing agent or at a pH within the range of 5-10.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 6, 2009
    Date of Patent: October 16, 2012
    Assignee: New England Biolabs, Inc.
    Inventors: Christopher H. Taron, Paul A. Colussi, Jeremiah Read

  • Modified chitin binding domain and uses thereof
    Publication number: 20060199225
    Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided for reversibly binding chitin-binding domain (CBD) to a chitin or equivalent substrate under non-denaturing conditions. CBD from either prokaryotes or eukaryotes are modified for example, by random mutation, and screened to identify mutants that achieve this change in properties. Creating a modified CBD with an altered binding affinity for substrate provides new uses for CBD not previously possible with unmodified CBD that binds irreversibly to chitin.
