Controlled self-assembly of glycoprotein complex in snail mucus from lubricating liquid to elastic fiber

The pedal mucus secreted by many gastropod mollusks, such as terrestrial snails and slugs, plays crucial roles in locomotion, osmoregulation, reproduction, and repulsing predators. In this report, we presented an intriguing example that terrestrial snail can utilize the self-assembly of glycoprotein...
