  • Water-soluble polypeptides comprised of repeat modules, method for preparing the same and method for a target-specific polypeptide and analysis of biological activity thereof
    Patent number: 9441017
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a soluble polypeptide comprised of repeat modules. More particularly, the present invention relates to a soluble fusion polypeptide of the N-terminal domain of internalin and LRR (Leucine rich repeat) family protein, a method for preparing the polypeptide, a vector comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding the polypeptide, a host cell comprising the vector, a method for producing a solubility and folding-improved fusion polypeptide by expressing the vector in the host cell, and a method for improving the solubility and folding of the fusion polypeptide. Further, the present invention relates to a method for preparing the polypeptide bound with a specific target and analyzing the efficacy of the soluble polypeptide.
