… Our results demonstrate that large reinforced protein single crystals can be produced
through embedding a framework of silica gel. The silica gel enhances their mechanical stability …

… biomimetically synthesized composite made of alumina and aramid fiber reinforced epoxy.
Finally, the influence of proteins on the nucleation and growth of mineral crystals is studied. …

… This is primarily attributed to the denser packing of the internal 𝛽sheet, stronger intermolecular
forces, and larger average crystallite sizes within the protein molecules. Moreover, the …

… We have previously proven the ability to produce protein crystals using different types of gels
(agarose, poly(ethylene glycol), silica, etc.).14 Peptide-based hydrogels have proven to be …

… Here we propose the novel combinational technique of seeding and reinforcing hydrogel-grown
protein crystals using agarose or TGP hydrogels for neutron crystallography. To …

… reinforced protein crystals able to maintain their structural integrity during their manipulation
and to resist dehydration, these “hybrid” crystals … of growing reinforced protein crystals, we …

… Reinforced gel-grown protein crystals can be a good strategy for the production of stable
seeds for the regrowth procedure required for neutron diffraction. Using silica-grown …

… , calcite crystals are grown in the porous the stone to bridge across the pore and reinforce. …
The aim of this work is to evaluate the use of OMM and similar acid functionalised proteins as …

… Here, we report the crystal structure of the VWF CTCK dimer. Our structure defines the
principles for assembly of proteins with functions as diverse as hemostasis (VWF), barrier function (…

… size of β-sheet crystals, which are self-… protein crystals via molecular dynamics simulation
[3] and found that the strength of β-sheet crystals gradually increased with a decrease in crystal …
