Structure and sequence features of mussel adhesive protein lead to its salt-tolerant adhesion ability

Mussels can strongly adhere to hydrophilic minerals in sea habitats by secreting adhesive proteins. The adhesion ability of these proteins is often attributed to the presence of Dopa derived from posttranslational modification of Tyr, whereas the contribution of structural feature is overlooked. It...
