Molecular Dynamics of Synthetic Flagelliform Silk Fiber Assembly

Macromol. Mater. Eng. 2021, 306, 2000530 https://doi.org/10.1002/mame.202000530 These results agree with previous studies and adds to the idea that the spacer region might be involved in β-sheets formation,[26, 27] possibly serving as a linker for the flexible spirals adopted by the repeated glycine-rich sequence, conferring strength to the fiber. This change does not affect the overall conclusions of this work. The authors apologize for any inconvenience caused.
