Recombinant analogue of spidroin 2 for biomedical materials

In addition to having outstanding mechanical properties, spider silk proteins are biocompatible with human and animal tissues and exhibit a low immunogenicity and the ability for slow biodegradation. All these properties make them potentially attractive as materials of wide use primarily in biomedic...
