Biophysical characterization of squid’s sucker ring teeth proteins
Sucker ring teeth (SRT) are natural biopolymers entirely composed of proteins (called “suckerins”) exhbiting a block-copolymer-like structure. Despite being stabalized exclusively through the cooperative action of weak interactions, they feature exceptional mechanical properties that rival those of...
