Structural and functional characteristics of xenavidin, the first frog avidin from Xenopus tropicalis
BACKGROUND: Avidins are proteins with extraordinarily high ligand-binding affinity, a property which is used in a wide array of life science applications. Even though useful for biotechnology and nanotechnology, the biological function of avidins is not fully understood. Here we structurally and fun...
