Subtle balance of tropoelastin molecular shape and flexibility regulates dynamics and hierarchical assembly

The assembly of the tropoelastin monomer into elastin is vital for conferring elasticity on blood vessels, skin, and lungs. Tropoelastin has dual needs for flexibility and structure in self-assembly. We explore the structure-dynamics-function interplay, consider the duality of molecular order and di...
