[NMR paper] Biomimicry of artificial spider silk spinning assessed by NMR Biomimicry of artificial spider silk spinning assessed by NMR Biomimetic spinning of artificial spider silk requires that the terminal domains of designed minispidroins undergo specific structural changes in concert with the ?-sheet conversion of the repetitive region. Here, we combine solution and solid state NMR methods to probe domain-specific structural changes in the NT2RepCT minispidroin, which allows us to assess the degree of biomimicry of artificial silk spinning. In addition, we show that the structural effects of post-spinning procedures can be examined. By studying the impact...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	08-09-2017 09:26 AM
