Abstract: The present invention relates to technology of immobilizing or coating various functional bioactive substances on various surfaces without physical chemical treatment using mussel adhesive protein. More specifically, the present invention relates to a functional scaffold for tissue engineering comprising artificial extracellular matrix, manufactured by coating various functional bioactive substances on the surface of nanofiber and metal scaffold using mussel adhesive protein, and a method of manufacturing the same.

Abstract: There are provided a recombinant silk protein derived from sea anemones, a method for producing the same, and a composition for preparing a silk fiber including same. The recombinant silk protein derived from sea anemones has sequence features similar to genetic information of a silk protein derived from spiders and silkworms. Also, a large amount of recombinant silk protein derived from sea anemones may be produced from a transformant and it has good physical properties such as strength and elasticity. Therefore, the recombinant silk protein derived from sea anemones can be usefully applied in various industrial fields in which natural silk protein can be applied, and it is expected to create new industrial fields based on its distinctive mechanical properties.

Abstract: The present invention relates to recombinant mussel adhesive protein wherein a DOPA residue is in vivo incorporated instead of a tyrosine residue, and a method for producing the same. More specifically, the present invention relates to recombinant mussel adhesive protein wherein a DOPA residue is incorporated instead of a tyrosine residue, and a method for producing the same, and a transformant for producing the recombinant mussel adhesive protein.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a coacervate comprising a mussel adhesive protein and an anionic polymer, and more particularly, to a coacervate prepared by mixing a mussel adhesive protein with an anionic polymer, and a novel use thereof. In the present invention, a coacervate prepared by mixing a mussel adhesive protein and an anionic polymer shows a very excellent adhesive strength to various substrates such as cells or metals, and is able to maintain its adhesive strength in the presence of water or under water, thereby being effectively used as an adhesive. Moreover, it has an activity capable of encapsulating bioactive materials, thereby being effectively used as an active component of a composition for delivering bioactive materials.
