Engineered mosaic protein polymers; a simple route to multifunctional biomaterials

Abstract Background Engineered living materials (ELMs) are an exciting new frontier, where living organisms create highly functional materials. In particular, protein ELMs have the advantage that their properties can be manipulated via simple molecular biology. Caf1 is a protein ELM that is especial...
