A streptavidin variant with slower biotin dissociation and increased mechanostability.

Streptavidin binds biotin conjugates with exceptional stability but dissociation does occur, limiting its use in imaging, DNA amplification and nanotechnology. We identified a mutant streptavidin, traptavidin, with more than tenfold slower biotin dissociation, increased mechanical strength and impro...
