Complete Sequences of the Velvet Worm Slime Proteins Reveal that Slime Formation is Enabled by Disulfide Bonds and Intrinsically Disordered Regions
The slime of velvet worms (Onychophora) is a strong and fully biodegradable protein material, which upon ejection undergoes a fast liquid‐to‐solid transition to ensnare prey. However, the molecular mechanisms of slime self‐assembly are still not well understood, notably because the primary structure...
