Stretching of <i>Bombyx mori</i> Silk Protein in Flow

Stretching of <i>Bombyx mori</i> Silk Protein in Flow

The flow-induced self-assembly of entangled <i>Bombyx mori</i> silk proteins is hypothesised to be aided by the ‘registration’ of aligned protein chains using intermolecularly interacting ‘sticky’ patches. This suggests that upon chain alignment, a hierarchical network forms that collect...
