Abstract: Elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) are stimulus-responsive protein-based biopolymers that exhibit phase transition behavior. By joining them to synthetic phytochelatin (EC), EC-ELP fusion proteins with temperature sensitivity and metal-binding functionality were generated to remove heavy metal ions… read more here.

Abstract: Many organisms possess the ability to produce metal-binding proteins to absorb cadmium. Metallothioneins, an important family of cysteine-rich metal-binding proteins, have been isolated and well characterized. However, Lentinula edodes may have a different type of… read more here.
