Elucidating the Molecular Dynamics, Structure and Assembly of Spider Dragline Silk Proteins by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy
abstract: Spider dragline silk is an outstanding biopolymer with a strength that exceeds steel by weight and a toughness greater than high-performance fibers like Kevlar. For this reason, structural and dynamic studies on the spider silk are of great importance for developing future biomaterials. Th...
