Oxidatively Responsive Chain Extension to Entangle Engineered Protein Hydrogels

Engineering artificial protein hydrogels for medical applications requires precise control over their mechanical properties, including stiffness, toughness, extensibility, and stability in the physiological environment. Here we demonstrate topological entanglement as an effective strategy to robustl...
