Abstract: Silk-elastin-like-protein polymers (SELPs) are genetically engineered recombinant protein sequences consisting of repeating units of silk-like and elastin-like blocks. By combining these entities, it is shown that both the characteristic strength of silk and the temperature-dependent… read more here.

Abstract: Genetically engineered silk-elastin-like-proteins (SELPs) synthesized with the combination of silk and elastin domains were bioengineered to also contain a graphene oxide binding domain. The conductivity and mechanical stability of graphene, combined with SELP-specific graphene interfaces… read more here.

Abstract: The modulation of reaction kinetics with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-catalyzed cross-linking of proteins remains a useful strategy to modulate hydrogel formation. Here, we demonstrate that the presence of positively charged lysines in silk-elastin-like polymers impacts the… read more here.
