Spider dragline silk, solely made from protein, outperforms synthetic fibers in terms of toughness and extensibility, which is thought to originate from its refined nano-scale hierarchical structure. The key for understanding the outstanding mechanic

Disordered proteins have the capacity to self-assemble from random coils to partial or complete folded structures. Such combination of amorphous/ordered phases within the protein structure is determined by the aminoacid sequence as well as enviroment

Mechanical pulling forces have been shown to significantly alter the rate of redox reactions in various thiol/disulfide exchange systems [1]. However, it has been questioned if force can directly affect the electron affinity of such redox systems [2]

Silk is an intriguing protein-based material that combines elasticity and strength to an extent not yet reached by any synthetic material today. Silk fibers are composed of highly-ordered beta-sheet crystals and an amorphous peptide matrix that both

Protein folds have been invented and adopted under various evolutionary constraints. The question arises how general mechanical attributes that control protein function have been sampled by the evolving protein domain repertoire in the varying biolog

ADAMTS13 is a plasma zinc metalloproteinase crucial for primary haemostasis, the enzymatic activity of which is biomechanically controlled. Shear stress-induced partial unfolding of its substrate, the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain, is essenti

Regulation of (Bio)chemical reactions by mechanical force has been proposed to be fundamental to cellular functions[1]. Atomic force microscopy and molecular force probe experiments suggested an enhancement on the reactivity of thiol/disulfide exchan

Single-molecule measurements of how proteins respond to applied force can provide valuable clues to their structure-function relationship, particularly for proteins whose role in vivo relies on an ability to resist or sense force. Interpretation of s

Mechanical force is routinely applied to proteins in force probing experiments and simulations to observe a protein's response to external stress. A yet unanswered question is how force propagates through proteins. How do perturbations like an extern

Background: An important regulatory mechanism of VWF functional activity is the proteolysis of the VWF high molecular weight multimers by ADAMTS13. The ADAMTS13 specific proteolytic site is located in the VWF A2 domain between Y1605 and M1606. Homolo
