Carotenoids are efficient antioxidants that are of great importance for human health. Lutein and zeaxanthin are carotinoids present in high concentrations in the human retina which are involved in the photoprotection of the human eye. Lutein may also protect the skin from ultraviolet (UV)-induced damage. The present study investigated the protective effect of lutein extracted from yellow silk c...
Without any preprocessing, silk fabric has lower ability to hold on water due to the smooth morphology of silk fibers. Therefore, patterns directly printed with pigment inks have poor color yields and easily bleed. Plasma surface-treatment of silk fabric was carried out in an oxygen atmosphere under different experimental conditions. The samples were printed with magenta pigment ink after treat...
The wheat midge, Sitodiplosis mosellana (Géhin) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), is one of the most serious pests of wheat worldwide. It overwinters as cocooned larvae in diapause and non-diapause forms. The cocoon is made of silk from the salivary glands. The silk glands, therefore, play an important role in the S. mosellana diapause. In the present study, the ultra-structures of the silk glands betw...
Spider silk fibres share unprecedented structural and mechanical properties which span from the macroscale to nanoscale and beyond. This is possible due to the molecular features of modular proteins termed spidroins. Thus, the investigation of the organizational scaffolds observed for spidroins in spider silk fibres is of paramount importance for reverse bioengineering. This dataset consists in...
The possibility of producing valued devices from low cost natural resources is a subject of broad interest. The present study explores the preparation and characterization of silk fibroin dense membranes using waste silk fibers from textile processing. Morphology, crystallinity, thermal resistance and cytotoxicity of membranes as well as the changes on the secondary structure of silk fibroin we...
Spiders are ecologically important predators with complex venom and extraordinarily tough silk that enables capture of large prey. Here we present the assembled genome of the social velvet spider and a draft assembly of the tarantula genome that represent two major taxonomic groups of spiders. The spider genomes are large with short exons and long introns, reminiscent of mammalian genomes. Phyl...
Spiders` silk is a natural material with great mechanical properties. Therefore, scientists are trying to find its secrets. Latest discovery has shown that spiders` silk is a protein, and its good mechanical properties lay in its tertiary structure: beta-sheet nanocrystals. The bonds in the structure are hydrogen, which are among the weakest bonds, however here in crystals hydrogen bonds brakes...
Silk fabrics were colored by gold nanoparticles (NPs) that were in situ synthesized through the induction of sunlight. Owing to the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of gold NPs, the treated silk fabrics presented vivid colors. The photo-induced synthesis of gold NPs was also realized on wet silk through adsorbing gold ions out of solution, which provides a water-saving coloration meth...
An overview of solid-state NMR structural studies on various silk forms and analogs conducted by the authors' research groups is presented. The well-studied silkworm and spider silks together with related silk peptides have a mixture of secondary structures including b-sheet, b-turn, helix and random coil that are difficult to analyze by X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy but convenientl...
Synchrotron FTIR (S-FTIR) microspectroscopy was used to monitor the silk protein conformation in a range of single natural silk fibers (domestic and wild silkworm and spider dragline silk). With the selection of suitable aperture size, we obtained high-resolution S-FTIR spectra capable of semiquantitative analysis of protein secondary structures. For the first time, we have determined from S-FT...
