In this communication, we report the spontaneous and reversible in vitro self-assembly of a polypeptide fragment derived from the C-terminal domain of Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein (IGFBP-2) into soluble nanotubular structures several micrometres long via a mechanism involving inter-molecular disulfide bonds and exhibiting enhanced fluorescence.
在本通讯中,我们报告了胰岛素样生长因子结合蛋白(IGFBP-2)C 端结构域的多肽片段在体外自发和可逆地自我组装成数微米长的可溶性纳米管状结构,其机制涉及分子间二硫键,并表现出增强的荧光。
