Abstract Fibrous networks constructed from high aspect ratio protein building blocks are ubiquitous in nature. Despite this ubiquity, the functional advantage of such building blocks over globular proteins is not understood. To answer this question,

Through a multi-modal rheology approach, we show that muscle-inspired hydrogels exhibit a surprising diversity of viscoelastic response from power-law rheology at low strains to stiffening and energy dissipation at high strains.

Hierarchical assemblies of proteins exhibit a wide-range of material properties that are exploited both in nature and by artificially by humankind. However, little is understood about the importance of protein unfolding on the network assembly, sever

Globular folded proteins are versatile nanoscale building blocks to create biomaterials with mechanical robustness and inherent biological functionality due to their specific and well-defined folded structures. Modulating the nanoscale unfolding of p

Folded globular proteins are attractive building blocks for biopolymer-based materials, as their mechanically resistant structures carry out diverse biological functionality. While much is now understood about the mechanical response of single folded
