The Fluorescein binding Anticalin FluA
There are a broad range of natural as well as engineered binding proteins availible. The most commonly known binding proteins are antibodies which defend mammals against pathogens and toxins. Beside these natural binding proteins there are more and more designed binding proteins such as (1) Anticalins based on a lipocalin scaffold [[http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10051566 Beste et al., 1999], [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16307475 Vopel et al., 2005]], (2) Affibodies derived from the z-domain of the antibody-binding protein A (Ref) and (3) DARPins that are based on an ankyrin scaffold. [...] reshaping of the binding pocket by amino acid substitutions to bind different ligand. Bilin-binding-protein binding bilin was reshaped to bind fluorescein. Based on
