A research study describes a systematic high-throughput design approach for virtual screening and creation of novel polypeptide-based molecules that form regular secondary structures that can be used ...

Animals such as spiders make fibers which are strong and elastic. These fibers have a polypeptide structure and serve as inspiration for research into the development of functional materials.

Fibrous structures act as load-bearing components in vivo in many natural proteins besides enzymes, which are soluble globular molecules. Natural evolutionary processes have produced structural ...

These fibers have a polypeptide structure and serve as inspiration for research into the development of functional materials. Alpha (α)-amino acid N-carboxyanhydrides (NCAs) are precursors for ...

In nature, there are animals that make fibers which are strong and elastic. For example, the thread that spiders produce to make webs. These fibers have a polypeptide structure and serve as ...
