De novo peptide sequencing of spider silk proteins by mass spectrometry and discovery of novel fibroin genes

Spiders produce multiple types of silk that exhibit diverse mechanical properties and biological functions. Most molecular studies of spider silk have focused on fibroins from dragline silk and capture silk, two important silk types involved in the survival of the spider. In this study we have focus...
