Conservation of a pH-sensitive structure in the C-terminal region of spider silk extends across the entire silk gene family
Spiders produce multiple silks with different physical properties that allow them to occupy a diverse range of ecological niches, including the underwater environment. Despite this functional diversity, past molecular analyses show a high degree of amino acid sequence similarity between C-terminal r...
