Expression

Patent: [http://www.google.com/patents?id=pLIgAAAAEBAJ&dq=5202236 Method of producing bioadhesive protein]. Making mussel proteins since 1990! ---Steve Kron

Patent: [http://www.google.com/patents?id=U-kgAAAAEBAJ&dq=mussel+adhesive Bioadhesive precursor protein expression vectors]. I swear these people just photocopied their application and mailed it out again. ---Steve Kron

Patent: [http://www.google.com/patents?id=nrQcAAAAEBAJ&dq=mussel+adhesive Production of bioadhesive precursor protein analogs by genetically engineered organisms]. New pictures this time. ---Steve Kron

Secretion

[http://www.springerlink.com/content/w8gj1t1j6v540083/fulltext.pdf An E. coli Expression System for the Extracellular Secretion of Barley α-Amylase]. A possible secretion pathway if we choose E. coli for our system. ---Nora Yucel

Mgfp-5

[http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/B6T3C-4KXDR0V-2/1/a80e68f3d0ada12719651719e1cc11ec Recombinant mussel adhesive protein Mgfp-5 as cell adhesion biomaterial]. Modified Mgfp-5 is better than Cell-Tak or poly-L-lysine; unmodified is about the same as Cell-Tak. It survives harsher washes on glass than BSA or Cell-Tak. ---Steve Kron

[http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/B6TWB-4NMWRCS-F/1/9587d2845309a42beb00a6663a1b5085 Practical recombinant hybrid mussel bioadhesive fp-151]. A recombinant fp-1/fp-5 fusion protein works in cell bioadhesion assays. 1g/L production and soluble. ---Steve Kron

Other

[http://openwetware.org/wiki/IGEM:MIT/2007/Ideas3 2007 Ideas]. Great big honking list of references. ---Thomas Graham
