An RGD-Containing Peptide Derived from Wild Silkworm Silk Fibroin Promotes Cell Adhesion and Spreading
Arginine-Glycine-Aspartate (RGD) tripeptide can promote cell adhesion when present in the amino acid of proteins such as fibronectin. In order to demonstrate the bioactivity of an RGD-containing silk protein, a gene encoding the RGD motif-containing peptide GSGAGGRGDGGYGSGSS (⁻RGD̿...
