Diverging Liquid–Liquid Phase Separation Behavior of Different Recombinant Major Ampullate Spidroins
1 Introduction Spider silk is one of the toughest natural fiber materials known. Among the various spider silk types, often up to seven in total, major ampullate silk is the most extensively studied [1]. Thus far, the detected silk proteins (= spidroins) of major ampullate silks are currently divided into five subtypes of Major ampullate spidroins (MaSps, MaSp1 to MaSp5), each thought to contribute in a different manner to the mechanical properties of the fiber [2].
MamF-like proteins are distant Tic20 homologs involved in organelle assembly in bacteria - Nature Communications
Abstract Organelle-specific protein translocation systems are essential for organelle biogenesis and maintenance in eukaryotes but thought to be absent from prokaryotic organelles. Here, we demonstrate that MamF-like proteins are crucial for the formation and functionality of bacterial magnetosome organelles. Deletion of mamF-like genes in the Alphaproteobacterium Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense results in severe defects in organelle positioning, biomineralization, and magnetic navigation.
Bioinspired and biomimetic protein-based fibers and their applications - Communications Materials
Abstract Protein-based fibers combine unique mechanical properties with biocompatibility and biodegradability, and often outperform polymer-based fibers. Furthermore, a growing need for sustainable materials has triggered a revival in the study of protein fibers, including keratin, collagen, elastin, and silk, which do not require environmentally damaging petrochemicals for their synthesis.
