Relating spidroin motif prevalence and periodicity to the mechanical properties of major ampullate spider silks

Spider dragline fibers exhibit incredible mechanical properties, outperforming many synthetic polymers in toughness assays, and possess desirable properties for medical and other human applications. These qualities make dragline fibers popular subjects for biomimetics research. The enormous diversit...
