摘要: Hydrophobins are highly surface-active proteins that have versatile potential as agents for interface engineering. Due to the large and growing number of unique hydrophobin sequences identified, there is engineer variants particular applications using protein engineering other approaches. Recent advancements in technologies production strategies reviewed. The application space hydrophobins growing, including hydrophobic drug solubilization delivery, purification tags, tools cell immobilization, antimicrobial coatings, biosensors, biomineralization templates emulsifying agents. While significant promise their use a wide range applications, developing new key need improve on low recombinant yields enable broader applications; further optimization expression systems remains challenge order designed commercial applications.
