This study, conducted by a team from Northwestern University, combines computer modeling and laboratory experiments to understand how stretching transforms the molecular structure of silk. The results ...

It seeks to explain biological function in terms of molecular structure, dynamics and organization, from single molecules to supramolecular structures. Proteins rely on dynamic flexibility to ...

Despite developing this “recipe” for spider silk, researchers still don’t fully understand how the spinning process changes fiber structure and strength. To tackle this open-ended question, Keten and ...

Louis The simulation allowed them to take a look at the molecular level changes occurring in the spider silk proteins when ... However, once stretched, this structure transforms into an ...
