    Abstract: A method for producing a protein polymer fiber, the method comprising providing a liquid protein solution in a container for liquid, and repeatedly moving the liquid surface in the container back and forth between a first and a second position. Said movement of the liquid surface is such that the protein polymer solution is allowed to form a film in the interface between the liquid surface of the liquid protein solution and a surrounding fluid. The movement of the liquid surface being performed by respectively raising and lowering the liquid surface relative to the container or by moving an object extending through the liquid surface of the liquid protein solution. Also, a device for performing said method.

    Abstract: A method for coating a solid surface with a recombinant spider silk protein capable of forming polymeric, solid structures is provided. The method is comprising the following steps: exposing the solid surface to an aqueous solution of the recombinant spider silk protein and thereby forming a surface layer of the recombinant spider silk protein adsorbed on the solid surface without formation of covalent bonds between the recombinant spider silk protein and the solid surface; and further exposing the surface layer of the solid surface to an aqueous solution of the recombinant spider silk protein and thereby forming an assembled silk structure layer of the recombinant spider silk protein on the surface layer; wherein the method does not include drying-in of spider silk protein.

    Abstract: A method of producing a desired non-spidroin protein or polypeptide is comprising the steps of expressing in a suitable host a fusion protein, obtaining a mixture containing the fusion protein, and optionally isolating the fusion protein. The fusion protein is comprising at least one solubility-enhancing moiety which is derived from the N-terminal (NT) fragment of a spider silk protein. It is further comprising at least one moiety which is a desired non-spidroin protein or polypeptide. Each solubility-enhancing moiety is linked directly or indirectly to the desired protein or polypeptide moiety.
