- KaM465 GCTAACAGATCTATGTTCGCCCGTCTCCCCGTCGT
- the column is washed with 50 mM Träs-Cl pH 8.0 buffer and the hydrophobin is subsequently eluted with 50 mM Tris-Cl pH 8.0 buffer containing 200 mM imidazof. To remove the iridazole, the solution is dialyzed against 50 mM Tris-Cl pH 8.0 buffer.
- Figure 1 shows the purification of the prepared hydrophobin
- Lane 1 Order nickel-Sepharose column (1, 10 dilution)
- Lane 2 Run - Eluate Wash Step
- Lanes 3 - 5 OD 280 Maxima of elution fractions
- the hydrophobin of Figure 1 has a molecular weight of about 53 kD.
- the smaller bands partially represent degradation products of hydrophobin.
- the samples are air-dried and the contact angle (in degrees) of a drop of 5 ⁇ S water at room temperature is determined.
- the contact angle measurement was performed on a device Dataphysics Contact Angle System OCA 15+, Software SCA 20.2.0. (November 2002). The measurement was carried out according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Coating agent Aqueous solution of hydrophobin pQE60 + YaaD + Xa + dewA + HIS6 (SEQ ID NO: 19), which was pretreated according to Example 8. (50 mM NaH 2 PO 4, pH 7.5, Hydrophobin 6.08 g / [.
- EPS expandable polystyrene
- EPS beads 50 g were weighed in a 500 ml screw-cap jar, admixed with 10 ml or 20 ml of the hydrophobin solution and placed on a "wheelchair" for 24 hours at room temperature, then the hydrophobin-coated EPS beads were placed on a filter paper and dried at room temperature for 5 hours.
- the coated EPS beads of Examples 10 and 11 and the comparative experiment were each prefoamed for 2 minutes at 100 0 C in the noise box to polystyrene foam beads and welded after 3 days storage to form parts. To assess the quality of the weld, the moldings were broken after 2 days of storage in the middle.
