Mechanical Behavior of Octopus Egg Tethers Composed of Topologically Constrained, Tandemly Repeated EGF Domains

[Image: see text] Whether and how intramolecular crosslinks in polymeric materials contribute to mechanical properties is debated in both experimental and theoretical arenas. The tethering threads of Octopus bimaculoides egg cases provide a rare window to investigate this question in a biomaterial....
