DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0014] The inventors of the present invention found that polyamino
acid (particularly polypeptide) itself, as well as a polar solvent
solution in which a solute containing the polyamino acid is
dissolved in polar solvent, readily absorbs moisture and lowers its
viscosity. To cope with this problem, the polar solvent solution of
the present invention in which a solute containing a polyamino acid
is dissolved in a polar solvent has a moisture content of less than
5 mass % (0 mass % or more and less than 5 mass %) based on 100
mass % of the solution. The moisture content of the polar solvent
solution is preferably 0 mass % or more and 3 mass % or less, more
preferably 0 mass % or more and 1.5 mass % or less. Within this
range, the polyamino acid (particularly polypeptide) in a swollen
state is dissolved in the polar solvent, and the viscosity of the
polar solvent solution is maintained high. In a case where the
moisture content is 5 mass % or more, the viscosity of the polar
solvent solution decreases significantly, and spinnability and
casting properties decrease accordingly when the solution is used
as dopes for spinning, film, etc. In the present specification, the
polar solvent solution is also called a dope. The following mainly
describes a case of using polypeptide, which is an exemplary
polyamino acid.
[0015] It is preferred that the polar solvent to be used in the
present invention contain at least one aprotic polar solvent
selected from the group consisting of (i) dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO),
(ii) N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), (iii) N,N-dimethylacetamide
(DMA), and (iv) N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP). This is because the
aprotic polar solvents can dissolve solutes containing polypeptides
easily. Examples of the polar solvent to be used in the present
invention other than the solvents containing the above-described
aprotic polar solvents include solvents containing protic polar
solvents such as hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP), formic acid, and
various kinds of alcohols (e.g., lower alcohols having 1 to 6
carbon atoms such as methanol, ethanol, and 2-propanol). As the
polar solvent, the ratio of the total amount of the at least one
aprotic polar solvent selected from the group consisting of
(i)-(iv) described above is desirably 10 to 100 mass %, based on
100 mass % of the polar solvent as a whole. Within this range, the
solubility of the solutes containing polypeptides can be
enhanced.
[0016] Any solute that contains a polyamino acid (particularly
polypeptide) can be used as the solute of the present invention. In
the present specification, the polyamino acid refers to any
polyamide compound polymerized through amide linkage between amino
groups and carboxyl groups of amino acids. As the polyamino acid,
the number of amino acids constituting the polyamide compound is
preferably 15 or more, more preferably 20 or more, further
preferably 30 or more, still further preferably 100 or more, and
particularly preferably 500 or more, and preferably 6000 or less,
more preferably 5000 or less, further preferably 3000 or less, and
particularly preferably 2000 or less. The solute to be used in the
present specification may be composed of, e.g., polyamino acid
alone or contain one or more kinds of substances (e.g.,
carbonhydrate, synthetic resin) other than the polyamino acid in
combination with the polypeptide. Moreover, the solute to be used
in the present specification may be composed of, e.g., polypeptide
alone or contain one or more kinds of substances (e.g.,
carbonhydrate, synthetic resin) other than the polypeptide in
combination with the polypeptide. The polypeptide is preferably a
structural protein, more preferably a structural protein including
crystal regions. Such polypeptides can exhibit high strength and
high toughness when formed into fibers, films, and the like. The
structural protein refers to any protein involved in structures of
living organisms, or any protein constituting structures created by
living organisms. Examples of the structural protein include
fibroin, sericin, collagen, keratin, elastin, and resillin.
[0017] The polypeptides are preferably fibroin such as spider silk
proteins and silk proteins. Of these, spider silk proteins are
particularly preferred because they have a high affinity for polar
solvents and can be dissolved in the polar solvents easily.
[0018] When the polar solvent solution of the present invention is
assumed to be 100 mass %, the concentration of the solute (e.g.,
spider silk protein) is desirably 2 to 50 mass %, further
preferably 3 to 40 mass %, and particularly preferably 5 to 30 mass
%. Within this range, the decrease or excessive increase of the
viscosity of the polar solvent solution can be avoided
effectively.
[0019] The polar solvent solution of the present invention,
desirably in a state where undesired substances such as dust and
bubbles have been removed, has a viscosity of preferably 10 to
100000 mPas, further preferably 15 to 20000 mPas, and particularly
preferably 100 to 10000 mPas. The polar solvent solution within
this viscosity range enables favorable wet spinning and film
casting when used as dopes.
[0020] In the production method of the present invention, the
viscosity of the polar solvent solution is adjusted by changing the
moisture content of the polar solvent solution. Moreover, in the
production method of the present invention, the viscosity of the
polar solvent solution is increased by reducing the moisture
content of the polar solvent solution. In these processes of
manufacture, the moisture content of the polar solvent solution is
adjusted to be preferably less than 5 mass %, more preferably 0 to
3 mass %, and further preferably 0 to 1.5 mass % based on 100 mass
% of the solution. By doing so, it is possible to obtain a polar
solvent solution that enables stable spinning and casting when used
as dopes for spinning, film, etc.
[0021] In the production methods of the present invention, the
adjustment for reducing the moisture content of the solution is
achieved by, e.g., subjecting the solute or the solvent to heat
drying or vacuum drying in advance, or adjusting the relative
humidity of the atmosphere in at least one of the production and
the storage of the solution, or vaporizing moisture of the produced
solution by heating, or absorbing moisture using various kinds of
moisture absorbents (moisture absorbent materials) such as zeolite,
or combining these operations appropriately. Among the adjustment
methods for reducing the moisture content of the solution described
above, the method of drying the solute before dissolution in the
solvent is favorably adopted. By doing so, the moisture content of
the solution can be reduced more reliably and more efficiently.
Moreover, in the case of changing the moisture content of the
solution by adjusting the relative humidity of the atmosphere, it
is advantageous that the relative humidity of the atmosphere in at
least one of the production and the storage of the solution is kept
at 1.3% RH or less. In order to keep the relative humidity of the
atmosphere at 1.3% RH or less, it is preferred that processes such
as the production and storage of the solution be carried out inside
a dry room.
[0022] In the present invention, DMSO, which is suitably used as a
polar solvent for dissolving a solute containing a polypeptide, is
particularly advantageously used as, e.g., a solvent for dissolving
a solute containing a spider silk protein. DMSO has a melting point
of 18.4.degree. C. and a boiling point of 189.degree. C. DMSO has a
much higher boiling point than hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) and
hexafluroacetone (HFAc) having boiling points of 59.degree. C. and
-26.5.degree. C., respectively, which have been used in
conventional methods. Further, in view of the fact that DMSO has
been used also in general industrial fields for acrylic fiber
polymerization and acrylic fiber spinning solutions, and as
solvents for polyimide polymerization, they are low cost substances
with proven safety.
[0023] The spider silk proteins, which are exemplified as
polypeptides to be contained in the solute of the present
invention, are not limited particularly as long as they are natural
spider silk proteins or proteins derived from or analogous to
(hereinafter, simply referred to as "derived from") natural spider
silk proteins. The proteins derived from natural spider silk
proteins described herein are proteins having an amino acid
sequence similar to or analogous to any of repetitive sequences of
amino acids of natural spider silk proteins, examples of which
includes variants, analogs, and derivatives of recombinant spider
silk proteins and natural spider silk proteins. The spider silk
proteins are preferably major dragline silk proteins produced in
major ampullate glands of spiders or spider silk proteins derived
therefrom, in terms of excellent tenacity. Examples of the major
dragline silk proteins include major ampullate spidroins MaSp1 and
MaSp2 derived from Nephila clavipes, and ADF3 and ADF4 derived from
Araneus diadematus, etc.
[0024] The spider silk proteins may be minor dragline silk proteins
produced in minor ampullate glands of spiders or spider silk
proteins derived therefrom.
[0025] Examples of the minor dragline silk proteins include minor
ampullate spidroins MiSp1 and MiSp2 derived from Nephila
clavipes.
[0026] Other than these, the spider silk proteins may be
flagelliform silk proteins produced in flagelliform glands of
spiders or spider silk proteins derived therefrom. Examples of the
flagelliform silk proteins include flagelliform silk proteins
derived from Nephila clavipes, etc.
[0027] Examples of the spider silk proteins (polypeptides) derived
from major dragline silk proteins include recombinant spider silk
proteins containing two or more units of an amino acid sequence
represented by the formula 1: REP1-REP2 (1), preferably recombinant
spider silk proteins containing four or more units thereof, and
more preferably recombinant spider silk proteins containing six or
more units thereof. In the recombinant spider silk proteins, units
of the amino acid sequence represented by the formula (1):
REP1-REP2 (1) may be the same or different from each other.
[0028] In the formula (1), the REP1 represents a polyalanine region
mainly constituted by alanine and expressed as (X1)p, and
preferably the REP1 represents polyalanine. Here, p is not
particularly limited, but preferably an integer of 2 to 20, more
preferably an integer of 4 to 12. X1 represents alanine (Ala),
serine (Ser), or glycine (Gly). The total number of alanine
residues in the polyalanine region expressed as (X1)p is preferably
80% or more, more preferably 85% or more with respect to the total
number of amino acid residues in the region. In the REP1, the
number of alanine residues arranged in succession is preferably 2
or more, more preferably 3 or more, further preferably 4 or more,
and particularly preferably 5 or more. Further, in the REP1, the
number of alanine residues arranged in succession is preferably 20
or less, more preferably 16 or less, further preferably 12 or less,
and particularly preferably 10 or less. In the formula (1), the
REP2 is an amino acid sequence composed of 10 to 200 amino acid
residues. The total number of glycine, serine, glutamine, proline
and alanine residues contained in the amino acid sequence is 40% or
more, preferably 50% or more, and more preferably 60% or more with
respect to the total number of amino acid residues contained
therein.
[0029] The REP1 corresponds to a crystal region in a fiber where a
crystal 13 sheet is formed, and the REP2 corresponds to an
amorphous region in a fiber where flexibility is high and most of
the parts lack regular configurations. Further, the [REP1-REP2]
corresponds to a repeating region (repetitive sequence) composed of
the crystal region and the amorphous region, which is a
characteristic sequence of dragline silk proteins.
[0030] Examples of the recombinant spider silk proteins containing
two or more units of the amino acid sequence represented by the
formula 1: REP1-REP2 (1) are recombinant spider silk proteins
derived from ADF3 having an amino acid sequence represented by any
of SEQ ID NO: 1, SEQ ID NO: 2 and SEQ ID NO: 3. The amino acid
sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 1 is an amino acid sequence
obtained by the following mutation: in an amino acid sequence of
ADF3 to the N-terminal of which has been added an amino acid
sequence (SEQ ID NO: 4) composed of a start codon, His 10-tag and
HRV3C Protease (Human rhinovirus 3C Protease) recognition site,
1.sup.st to 13.sup.th repetitive regions are about doubled and the
translation ends at the 1154.sup.th amino acid residue. The amino
acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 2 is an amino acid sequence
obtained by adding the amino acid sequence (SEQ ID NO: 4) composed
of a start codon, His 10-tag and HRV3C Protease (Human rhinovirus
3C Protease) recognition site, to the N-terminal of a partial amino
acid sequence of ADF3 (NCBI Genebank Accession No.: AAC47010, GI:
1263287) obtained from the NCBI database. The amino acid sequence
represented by SEQ ID NO: 3 is an amino acid sequence obtained by
the following mutation: in an amino acid sequence of ADF3 to the
N-terminal of which has been added the amino acid sequence (SEQ ID
NO: 4) composed of a start codon, His 10-tag and HRV3C Protease
(Human rhinovirus 3C Protease) recognition site, 1.sup.st to
13.sup.th repetitive regions are about doubled. Further, the
recombinant spider silk proteins containing two or more units of
the amino acid sequence represented by the formula 1: REP1-REP2 (1)
may be spider silk proteins that are composed of an amino acid
sequence represented by any of SEQ ID NO: 1, SEQ ID NO: 2 and SEQ
ID NO: 3 in which one or more amino acids have been substituted,
deleted, inserted and/or added and that have repeating regions
composed of the crystal region and the amorphous region.
[0031] Examples of the spider silk proteins (polypeptides) derived
from minor dragline silk proteins are recombinant spider silk
proteins containing an amino acid sequence represented by the
formula 2: REP3-REP4-REP5 (2). In the formula 2, the REP 3
indicates an amino acid sequence represented by (Gly-Gly-Z)m, the
REP4 indicates an amino acid sequence represented by (Gly-Ala)l,
and the REP5 indicates an amino acid sequence represented by
(Ala)r. In the REP3, Z indicates any one of amino acids,
particularly, it is preferably an amino acid selected from the
group consisting of Ala, Tyr and Gin. Further, in the REP3, m is
preferably 1 to 4. In the REP4, l is preferably 0 to 4. In the REP
5, r is preferably 1 to 6.
[0032] Among spider silks, the minor dragline silk is wound
spirally from the center of a spider net, and used as a
reinforcement of the net and a yarn to wrap a captured prey. The
minor dragline silk is inferior to the major dragline silk in
tensile strength, but is known to have high stretchability. The
reason for this is considered to be as follows: in the minor
dragline silk, since many crystal regions are composed of regions
where glycine and alanine are arranged alternately in succession,
the hydrogen bonds of the crystal regions weaken easily as compared
with the major dragline silk whose crystal regions are composed
only of alanine.
[0033] Examples of the recombinant spider silk proteins
(polypeptides) derived from flagelliform silk proteins include
recombinant spider silk proteins containing an amino acid sequence
represented by the formula 3: REP6 (3). In the formula 3, the REP 6
indicates an amino acid sequence represented by (U1)n or (U2)n. In
the REP6, U1 indicates an amino acid sequence represented by
Gly-Pro-Gly-X-X (SEQ ID NO: 12), and U2 indicates an amino acid
sequence represented by Gly-Pro-Gly-Gly-X (SEQ ID NO: 13). In the
U1 and U2, X indicates any one of amino acids, particularly, it is
preferably an amino acid selected from the group consisting of Ala,
Ser, Tyr, Gin, Val, Leu, and Ile, more preferably an amino acid
selected from the group consisting of Ala, Ser, Tyr, Gin, and Val.
A plurality of X may be the same or different from each other. In
the REP6, n indicates a number of 4 or larger, preferably 10 or
larger, and more preferably 20 or larger.
[0034] Among spider silks, the flagelliform silk does not have
crystal regions but has repeating regions composed of the amorphous
region, which is a major characteristic of the flagelliform silk.
It is considered that since the major dragline silk and the like
have repeating regions composed of the crystal region and the
amorphous region, they have both high stress and stretchability.
Meanwhile, regarding the flagelliform silk, the stress is inferior
to that of the major dragline silk but the stretchability is high.
The reason for this is considered to be that the flagelliform silk
is composed mostly of the amorphous region.
[0035] The recombinant spider silk proteins (polypeptides) can be
produced using a host that has been transformed by an expression
vector containing a gene encoding a natural spider silk protein
subjected to recombination. A method for producing a gene is not
limited particularly, and it may be produced by amplifying a gene
encoding a natural spider silk protein from a cell derived from
spiders by a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or the like, and
cloning it, or may be synthesized chemically. A method for
chemically synthesizing a gene also is not limited particularly,
and it can be synthesized as follows, for example: based on
information of amino acid sequences of natural spider silk proteins
obtained from the NCBI web database or the like, oligonucleotides
that have been synthesized automatically with AKTA oligopilot plus
10/100 (GE Healthcare Japan Corporation) are linked by PCR or the
like. At this time, in order to facilitate purification and
observation of protein, a gene may be synthesized that encodes a
protein having the above-described amino acid sequence to the
N-terminal of which has been added an amino acid sequence composed
of a start codon and His 10-tag. Examples of the expression vector
include a plasmid, a phage, a virus and the like that can express
protein based on a DNA sequence. The plasmid-type expression vector
is not limited particularly as long as it allows a target gene to
be expressed in a host cell and it can amplify itself. For example,
in the case of using Escherichia coli Rosetta (DE3) as a host, a
pET22b(+) plasmid vector, a pCold plasmid vector and the like can
be used. Among these, in terms of productivity of protein, it is
preferable to use the pET22b(+) plasmid vector. Examples of the
host include animal cells, plant cells, microbes, etc.

result, a pUC57 vector to which a gene of ADF3Kai having a base
sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 5 had been introduced was
obtained (having an Nde I site immediately upstream of 5' terminal
of the gene and an Xba I site immediately downstream of 5' terminal
thereof). Thereafter, the gene was subjected to a restriction
enzyme treatment with Nde I and EcoR I, and recombined into a
pET22b(+) expression vector.
[0045] (2) Gene Synthesis of ADF3Kai-Large
[0046] The half of the gene sequence of ADF3Kai on the 5' side
(hereinafter, referred to as a sequence A) was amplified by the PCR
reaction using ADF3Kai as a template, and a T7 promoter primer (SEQ
ID NO: 8) and a Rep Xba I primer (SEQ ID NO: 9). The obtained DNA
fragment of the sequence A was recombined into a pUC118 vector that
had been subjected to the restriction enzyme treatment with Nde I
and Xba I in advance using a Mighty Cloning Kit (manufactured by
TAKARA BIO INC.). Similarly, the half of the gene sequence of
ADF3Kai on the 3' side (hereinafter, referred to as a sequence B)
was amplified by the PCR reaction using ADF3Kai as a template, and
an Xba I Rep primer (SEQ ID NO: 10) and a T7 terminator primer (SEQ
ID NO: 11). The obtained DNA fragment of the sequence B was
recombined into a pUC118 vector that had been subjected to the
restriction enzyme treatment with Xba I and EcoR I in advance using
the Mighty Cloning Kit (manufactured by TAKARA BIO INC.). The
pUC118 vector to which the sequence A had been introduced and the
pUC118 vector to which the sequence B had been introduced were
subjected to the restriction enzyme treatment with Nde I, Xba I and
Xba I, EcoR I, respectively, and target DNA fragments of the
sequences A and B were purified by gel cut. The DNA fragments A, B
and the pET22b(+) that had been subjected to the restriction enzyme
treatment with Nde I and EcoR I in advance were subjected to a
ligation reaction and transformed into Escherichia coli DH5a. After
confirmation of the insertion of the target DNA fragments by a
colony PCR using a T7 promoter primer and a T7 terminator primer,
plasmid was extracted from a colony where a target band size (3.6
kbp) was obtained, and the entire base sequence was checked by a
sequence reaction using a 3130.times.1 Genetic Analyzer (Applied
Biosystems). Consequently, the construction of a gene of
ADF3Kai-Large represented by SEQ ID NO: 6 was confirmed. The amino
acid sequence of ADF3Kai-Large is as represented by SEQ ID NO:
3.
[0047] (3) Gene Synthesis of ADF3Kai-Large-NRSH1
[0048] With a pET22b(+) vector to which the gene of ADF3Kai-Large
obtained above had been introduced used as a template, through
site-directed mutagenesis using a PrimeSTAR Mutagenesis Basal Kit
(manufactured by TAKARA BIO INC.), a codon GGC corresponding to the
1155.sup.th amino acid residue, i.e., glycine (Gly), in the amino
acid sequence of ADF3Kai-Large (SEQ ID NO: 3) was mutated into a
stop codon TAA, and a gene of ADF3Kai-Large-NRSH1 represented by
SEQ ID NO: 7 was constructed on the pET22b(+). The accuracy of the
introduction of the mutation was checked by the sequence reaction
using the 3130.times.1 Genetic Analyzer (Applied Biosystems). The
amino acid sequence of ADF3Kai-Large-NHSH1 is as represented by SEQ
ID NO: 1.
[0049] <Expression of Protein>
[0050] The pET22b(+) expression vector containing the gene sequence
of ADF3Kai-Large-NHSH1 was transformed into Escherichia coli
Rosetta (DE3). The obtained single colony was incubated for 15
hours in 2 ml of an LB culture medium containing ampicillin.
Thereafter, 1.4 ml of the culture solution was added to 140 ml of
an LB culture medium containing ampicillin, and incubated to an
OD.sub.600 of 3.5 under the conditions of 37.degree. C. and 200
rpm. Next, the culture solution with the OD.sub.600 of 3.5 was
added to 7 L of a 2.times.YT culture medium containing ampicillin,
together with 140 ml of 50% glucose, and incubated further to the
OD.sub.600 of 4.0. Thereafter, isopropyl-6-thiogalactopyranoside
(IPTG) was added to the obtained culture solution with the
OD.sub.600 of 4.0 so that the final concentration would be 0.5 mM,
thereby inducing the expression of protein. After a lapse of two
hours from the addition of IPTG, the culture solution was
centrifuged and bacterial cells were collected. Protein solutions
prepared from the culture solution before the addition of IPTG and
after the addition of IPTG were each electrophoresed in a
polyacrylamide gel. Consequently, a target band size (about 101.1
kDa) was observed with the addition of IPTG, and the expression of
the target protein was confirmed.
[0051] Purification
[0052] (1) About 50 g of bacteria cells of the Escherichia coli
expressing the ADF3Kai-Large-NRSH1 protein and 300 ml of a buffer
solution AI (20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4) were placed in a centrifuge
tube (1000 ml). After dispersing the bacteria cells with a mixer
("T18 basic ULTRA TURRAX" manufactured by IKA, level 2), the
dispersion was centrifuged (11,000 g, 10 minutes, room temperature)
with a centrifuge ("Model 7000" manufactured by Kubota
Corporation), and a supernatant was discarded.
[0053] (2) To a precipitate (bacteria cells) obtained by the
centrifugation, 300 ml of the buffer solution AI and 3 ml of 0.1 M
PMSF (dissolved by isopropanol) were added. After dispersing the
precipitate for 3 minutes with the mixer (level 2) manufactured by
IKA, the bacteria cells were disrupted repeatedly for three times
using a high-pressure homogenizer ("Panda Plus 2000" manufactured
by GEA Niro Soavi).
[0054] (3) To the disrupted bacterial cells, 300 ml of a buffer
solution B (50 mM Tris-HCL, 100 mM NaCl, pH 7.0) containing 3 w/v %
of SDS was added. After dispersing well the bacterial cells with
the mixer (level 2) manufactured by IKA, the dispersion was stirred
for 60 minutes with a shaker (manufactured by TAITEC CORPORATION,
200 rpm, 37.degree. C.). Thereafter, the stirred dispersion was
centrifuged (11,000 g, 30 minutes, room temperature) with the
centrifuge manufactured by Kubota Corporation, and a supernatant
was discarded, whereby SDS washing granules (precipitate) were
obtained.
[0055] (4) The SDS washing granules were suspended in a DMSO
solution containing LM lithium chloride so that the concentration
would be 100 mg/ml, and heat-treated for 1 hour at 80.degree. C.
Thereafter, the heated suspension was centrifuged (11,000 g, 30
minutes, room temperature) with the centrifuge manufactured by
Kubota Corporation, and the supernatant was collected.
[0056] (5) Ethanol in an amount three times greater than that of
the collected supernatant was prepared. The collected supernatant
was added to the ethanol, and left to stand still for 1 hour at
room temperature. Thereafter, the resultant was centrifuged (11,000
g, 30 minutes, room temperature) with the centrifuge manufactured
by Kubota Corporation to collect aggregated protein. Next, a
process of washing aggregated protein using pure water and a
process of collecting aggregated protein by centrifugation were
repeated three times, and then moisture was removed by a freeze
dryer to collect freeze-dried powder. The purification degree of
the target protein ADF3Kai-Large-NRSH1 (about 56.1 kDa) in the
obtained freeze-dried powder was checked by analyzing images of the
results of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (CBB staining) of
said protein powder using Totallab (nonlinear dynamics Ltd.). As a
result, the purification degree of ADF3Kai-Large-NRSH1 was about
85%.
[0057] 2. Adjustment of Dopes and Viscosity Measurement
[0058] The spider silk protein (powder) obtained above was
subjected to vacuum drying (bone dry), and the spider silk protein
in the absolute dry state was added to five DMSO solvents of a
predetermined amount prepared beforehand so that the concentration
of the protein of the respective solvents would be 15 mass %.
Different amounts of pure water were added and mixed into four of
the five DMSO solvents containing the spider silk protein to
prepare five kinds of dopes having different moisture contents
(moisture percentages) as indicated in Table 1 below. The dopes
with a moisture content of 0 mass %, 0.75 mass %, 1.5 mass %, and 3
mass % are dopes of Examples 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. The dope
with a moisture content of 5 mass % is a dope of Comparative
Example 1. In the preparation of the five kinds of dopes of
Examples 1-4 and Comparative Example 1, the spider silk protein was
dissolved in the solvents for 5 hours using a shaker, and then dust
and bubbles were removed from the solvents. This process was all
performed in a dry room at a relative humidity of 1.3% RH or less.
The storage was also in a dry room at a relative humidity of 1.3%
RH or less. The viscosity change with temperature was tested for
the dopes of Examples 1-4 and the dope of Comparative Example 1.
Table 1 below and FIG. 1 show the results.

Example, Comp. Ex.: Comparative Example
[0059] As is clear from Table 1 and FIG. 1, the dopes of Examples
1-4 with a moisture content of less than 5 mass % had high
viscosities regardless of the temperature, and the viscosity rise
in accordance with the temperature drop was significant, as
compared with the dope of Comparative Example 1 with a moisture
content of 5 mass %. Further, as to the dopes of Examples 1-4, the
viscosity was high as the moisture content was low, i.e., the dope
of Example 1 with a moisture content of 0 mass % had the highest
viscosity. Moreover, at a temperature of 25.degree. C., which is
close to room temperature, the viscosities of the dopes of Examples
1-4 were much higher than the viscosity of the dope of Comparative
Example 1, specifically, they were 2.8 to 4.7 times the viscosity
of the dope of Comparative Example 1. These results clearly
indicate that the viscosities of the dopes can be increased by
adjusting the moisture content of the dopes to be less than 5 mass
%. It was also confirmed that spinning and casting can be
stabilized with the dopes of Examples 1-4.
Examples 5-9
[0060] This experiment was carried out to examine the viscosity
change when with or without humidity control and the concentration
and temperature of spider silk protein were changed. First, the
spider silk protein (powder) obtained above was subjected to vacuum
drying (bone dry), and the spider silk protein (powder) in the
absolute dry state (moisture content: 0 mass %) was dissolved in
DMSO solvents at concentrations indicated in Table 2 below in a dry
room at a relative humidity of the atmosphere of 1.3% RH or less,
so as to produce four kinds of dopes (Examples 5-8) having
different concentrations of the spider silk protein. Then, the four
kinds of dopes of Examples 5-8 were stored in a dry room at a
relative humidity of 1.3% RH or less for 24 hours. Further, the
spider silk protein (powder) in the absolute dry state was
dissolved in a DMSO solvent at a concentration of 22.0 mass % in a
general laboratory (in the atmosphere) without humidity control to
produce a dope of Example 9. The dope of Example 9 was stored in a
general laboratory without humidity control for 24 hours. The
respective conditions of the experiment are shown in Table 2 below.
A relationship between the temperature and the viscosity of the
dopes of Examples 5-9 was examined. FIG. 2 shows the results.
TABLE-US-00002 TABLE 2 Ex. 5 Ex. 6 Ex. 7 Ex. 8 Ex. 9 Protein
concentration (mass %) 19.5 20.0 20.5 21.5 22.0 With or without
adjustment in With With With With Without dry room With or without
storage in With With With With Without dry room
[0061] As indicated in FIG. 2, the relationship between the
temperature and the viscosity of the dope of Example 9 (produced
and stored in an environment without humidity control and having a
protein concentration of 22.0 mass %) was substantially the same as
that of the dope of Example 7 (produced and stored in the dry room
and having a protein concentration of 20.5 mass %). The reason for
this is considered to be that the moisture in the atmosphere was
mixed into the dope of Example 9 during the production and storage.
These results indicate that the viscosities of the dopes can be
kept high by lowering the relative humidity of the atmosphere in
the production and storage of the dopes to prevent the dopes from
absorbing moisture.
[0062] (Reference Test 1)
[0063] The spider silk protein (powder) obtained above was
subjected to vacuum drying (bone dry), and the spider silk protein
(powder) in the absolute dry state was exposed to an atmosphere at
a temperature of 25.degree. C. and a relative humidity of 72% RH to
examine a change in moisture percentage. FIG. 3 shows the results.
As is clear from FIG. 3, the moisture percentage of the spider silk
protein (powder) in the absolute dry state reached about 13 mass %
(equilibrium moisture regain) in about 20 minutes. This test result
indicates that it is important for the spider silk protein (powder)
to be subjected to vacuum drying to prepare dopes. Without the
vacuum drying, the moisture adsorbed to the spider silk protein
(powder) during the storage under the room temperature or an
environment with high relative humidity is mixed into dopes
directly.
[0064] (Reference Test 2)
[0065] The following test was performed to confirm that the
lowering of the viscosity of the dope due to the mixing of moisture
into the dope was not simply attributed to the dilution of the dope
with moisture. First, a dishwashing detergent having almost the
same viscosity as that of the dope of Example 1 at 50.degree. C.
was prepared. Next, moisture was added to the dishwashing detergent
so that the moisture content would be 3 mass % based on 100 mass %
of the dishwashing detergent. Then, the viscosity of the
dishwashing detergent at 50.degree. C. was measured to determine a
rate of change of viscosity before and after addition of
moisture.
[0066] As a result, the viscosity of the dishwashing detergent at
50.degree. C. before addition of moisture was 143 mPas, and the
viscosity of the dishwashing detergent at 50.degree. C. after
addition of moisture was 133 mPas. A lowering rate of the viscosity
of the dishwashing detergent at 50.degree. C. due to addition of
moisture was 7%. Meanwhile, the viscosity of the dope of Example 1
at 50.degree. C. was 153 mPas, and the viscosity of the dope of
Example 4 at 50.degree. C. with a moisture content of 3 mass % by
addition of moisture was 89 mPas. A lowering rate of the viscosity
of the dope containing the spider silk protein at 50.degree. C. due
to addition of moisture was 42%. It was clearly recognized from
these results that the lowering of the viscosity of the polar
solvent solution containing polypeptide (e.g., spider silk protein)
due to the mixing of moisture into the solution was not simply
attributed to the dilution with moisture.
[0067] The following are considered as the reasons for the
significant lowering of the viscosity of the polar solvent solution
of polypeptide due to the mixing (inclusion) of moisture into the
solution. Amino acids constituting molecules of protein
(polypeptide) have various side chains. When water molecules enter
the polar solvent solution of protein, hydrogen bonds are formed
between the side chains of the protein molecules, and the protein
molecules agglomerate. This decreases the solubility of the
protein, and lowers the viscosity of the polar solvent solution of
protein. Therefore, by removing water molecules from the polar
solvent solution of protein, the agglomeration of the protein
molecules can be avoided, and the solubility of the protein into
the polar solvent solution can be enhanced, resulting in an
increase in the viscosity of the polar solvent solution.
INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY
[0068] The polar solvent solution of the present invention is
useful for wet spinning, film casting, gels, particles, mesh
materials, and various types of moldings.
