Nanoconfined β-sheets mechanically reinforce the supra-biomolecular network of robust squid sucker ring teeth by Guerette, Paul A., Hoon, Shawn, Ding, Dawei, Amini, Shahrouz, Masic, Admir, Ravi, Vydianathan, Venkatesh, Byrappa, Weaver, James C., Miserez, Ali

“…X-ray diffraction, nanomechanical, and micro-Raman spectroscopy measurements confirm that the modular design of the suckerins facilitates the formation of β-sheets of precise nanoscale dimensions and enables their assembly into structurally robust supramolecular networks stabilized by cooperative hydrogen bonding. The suckerin gene family has likely played a key role in the evolutionary success of decapodiform cephalopods and provides a large molecular toolbox for biomimetic materials engineering.…”
