Abstract:
1. An isolated protein encoded by one of the following nucleic acids (i)-(iv): (i) a nucleic acid having the base sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1; (ii) a nucleic acid encoding a protein having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2: (iii) a nucleic acid encoding a dragline protein with a base sequence identity of 90% or more to SEQ ID NO: 1; or (iv) a nucleic acid which encodes a dragline protein and hybridizes with the complementary chain of the nucleic acid of SEQ ID NO: 1 under stringent conditions including hybridization in a buffer solution of 50% formamide, 1M NaCI, 1% SDS at 37° C. and washing with 0.1×SSC at 60° C.
