Modified fibroin

Abstract

The present invention relates to a modified fibroin including a domain sequence represented by Formula 1: [(A)n motif-REP]m or Formula 2: [(A)n motif-REP]m-(A)n motif, and having a serine residue content rate of less than 5.5%. [In Formula 1 and Formula 2, the (A)n motif represents an amino acid sequence consisting of 4 to 27 amino acid residues, and the number of alanine residues with respect to the total number of amino acid residues in the (A)n motif is 80% or more. REP represents an amino acid sequence consisting of 10 to 200 amino acid residues. m represents an integer of 10 to 300. The plurality of (A)n motifs may be the same amino acid sequence or different amino acid sequences. A plurality of REPs may be the same amino acid sequence or different amino acid sequences.]
