In addition, it is expected that synthesizing these new polypeptide fibers using plant-derived amino acid as a starter will enable the development of next-generation biomaterials that meet the needs ...

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.

Fibrous structures act as load-bearing components in vivo in many natural proteins besides enzymes, which are soluble globular molecules. Natural evolutionary processes have produced structural ...

How did catalytic organic polymers emerge on prebiotic Earth? Answering this essential question will unlock key understandings in the origin of life. A team of scientists at Tohoku University have ...
