Blueprint for a High-Performance Biomaterial: Full-Length Spider Dragline Silk Genes

Spider dragline (major ampullate) silk outperforms virtually all other natural and manmade materials in terms of tensile strength and toughness. For this reason, the mass-production of artificial spider silks through transgenic technologies has been a major goal of biomimetics research. Although all...
