Sequence basis of Barnacle Cement Nanostructure is Defined by Proteins with Silk Homology

Barnacles adhere by producing a mixture of cement proteins (CPs) that organize into a permanently bonded layer displayed as nanoscale fibers. These cement proteins share no homology with any other marine adhesives, and a common sequence-basis that defines how nanostructures function as adhesives rem...
