The mechanical properties of Bombyx mori silk fibroin (SF), such as elasticity and tensile strength, change remarkably upon hydration. However, the microscopic interaction with water is not currently well understood on a molecular level. In this work, the dynamics of water molecules interacting with SF was studied by 2H solution NMR relaxation and exchange measurements. Additionally, the conformations...
Genetically modified silk fibroin containing a poly-glutamic acid site, [(AGSGAG) 4 E 8 AS] 4 , for mineralization was produced as fibers by transgenic silkworms through systematic transformation of the silkworms. The Ca binding activity and mineralization of the transgenic silk fibroin were examined in vitro, showing that this transgenic silk fibroin had relatively high Ca...
