20/11/  · Spider silk is often compared to insect silk, preferably taken from the silkworm Bombyx mori. The commercially available silkworm silk is reeled from cocoons of caterpillar pupae. This process has only been slightly optimized over centuries and is highly cost-efficient.

A new protein engineering approach, which combines synthetic repetitive silk sequences with authentic silk domains, reveals proteins that 

The artificial spider silk consists of hierarchical core-sheath structured hydrogel fibres, which are reinforced by ion doping and twist 

Recently, researchers have successfully used spider silk to create superlenses and produce high-resolution images inside human body. In the future, there is a 

The researchers designed a chimeric recombinant spider silk protein (spidroin) that combines soluble N- and C-terminal domains from two different species of spider. This extremely soluble spidroin

Here, we use a recombinant spider silk protein (NT2RepCT) and a functionalized variant carrying a peptide derived from vitronectin (VN-NT2RepCT) as substrates for nerve growth support and neurite extension, using a dorsal root ganglion cell line, ND7/23. Two-dimensional coatings were benchmarked against poly-d-lysine and recombinant laminins.

In this work, we show that the strain at break of biomimetic artificial spider silk fibers can be improved by means of increased incubation time in the collection bath. Notably, after ≥5 h incubation, the fibers do not dissolve in deionized water (dH 2 O) or phosphate buffered saline (PBS).

Spider silk is an alternative to silkworm silk fibers and has much more outstanding properties. Silk diversity ensures variation in its 

AMSilk grows spider silk proteins in E. coli and dries the purified protein into powders or mixes it into gels, for use as additives for personal care products, 

The artificial spider silk consists of hierarchical core-sheath structured hydrogel fibres, which are reinforced by ion doping and twist insertion. The fibre exhibits a tensile strength of 895 MPa
