Abstract
We investicated the properties of a novel but under-researched group of proteins called reflectins.
Reflectins are interesting because of their self-organising properties, which cause them to produce structural colour.
We expressed codon-optimised reflectin in E.Coli, and observed the protein's in vivo and in vitro effects.
Structural Colour
