Dynamic Changes and Characterization of the Metal Ions in the Silk Glands and Silk Fibers of Silkworm
Metal ions are involved in the conformational transition of silk fibroin and influence the structure and mechanical properties of silk fibers. However, the dynamic characteristics of metal ions during the formation of silk fibers remain unclear. In this study, we found that the silk glands of silkwo...
