Animals such as spiders make fibers which are strong and elastic. These fibers have a polypeptide structure and serve as inspiration for research into the development of functional materials.

Synthetic polypeptide and polymer chemistry has transformed biomaterials research by marrying the precision of organic synthesis with the complex functionalities of natural proteins. Typically ...

In nature, there are animals that make fibers that are strong and elastic—for example, the thread that spiders produce to make webs. These fibers have a polypeptide structure and serve as inspiration ...
