Regionalization of cell types in silk glands of Larinioides sclopetarius suggest that spider silk fibers are complex layered structures
Abstract In order to produce artificial silk fibers with properties that match the native spider silk we likely need to closely mimic the spinning process as well as fiber architecture and composition. To increase our understanding of the structure and function of the different silk glands of the or...
