Problems solved by technology

However, compared with sericin, which contains more acidic amino acids, the proportion of acidic amino acids in silk fibroin is less. It is generally believed that the biomineralization function of silk fibroin is weak, which limits its application in the field of biomineralization.
Studies have found that only the non-crystalline region sequence of the silk fibroin peptide chain can induce the growth of apatite crystals in the mineralization solution, and requires a longer mineralization time (7 days); while the silk fibroin peptide chain Because the crystalline region contains more non-polar amino acids, the ability to adsorb or chelate salt ions is low, so the ability to induce the formation of hydroxyapatite in the mineralization solution is very weak, so the comprehensive performance is that silk fibroin induces The ability of hydroxyapatite is very weak, even if it can induce the formation of hydroxyapatite, it needs a long mineralization time and harsh biomimetic mineralization steps
This defect limits the comprehensive performance of silk fibroin biomaterials and its application in bone tissue engineering
[0005] To sum up, there is no simple process, easy operation, and high biosafety method that can promote the biomimetic mineralization ability of silk fibroin.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for improving the biomineralization ability of silk fibroin. Use phage display technology to display mineralization-regulating polypeptides on the surface of phage capsid proteins, prepare phage nanofibers that exhibit mineralization-inducing functions, and form mineralized phage solutions; amplify, purify, and concentrate mineralized phages solution; the mineralized phage solution is added to the silk fibroin solution for assembly to obtain the modified silk fibroin. Compared with unimproved silk fibroin, the modified silk fibroin obtained by the present invention has better ability to regulate the nucleation and growth of mineralized substances, the modification method is simple and effective, the modification process is efficient, and the production cycle is greatly shortened. Advantages available at scale.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a processing method of biological materials, in particular to a method for improving the biomineralization ability of silk fibroin. Background technique [0002] Bone is the hardest connective tissue in the animal body. It is mainly composed of inorganic mineral hydroxyapatite (HA) crystals and organic type I collagen fibers and other hard tissues that are formed through the mineralization process in vivo. Biomineralization is a common life phenomenon. During the mineralization process in vivo, mineralization regulatory proteins such as osteopontin, osteocalcin, and dentin matrix protein play an important role in the crystal orientation, size, and morphology of HA crystals. control role. [0003] Bone defects and bone injuries are common diseases, with up to tens of millions of patients every year, posing a serious threat to patients' normal life activities and physical and mental health. The repair of bone tissue injury is o...
