Towards the rational design of mechanical proteins
The biological functions of proteins have long been studied in a manner that has deprived us of a basic mode of inquiry: physical manipulation. In recent years theoretical and technological advances have made possible tools to directly manipulate single molecules mechanically. The atomic force …

Computational Studies on the Mechanical Properties of Muscle and Blood Clot Elasticity
Mechanical proteins perform a vital role in cells by transmitting and bearing mechanical forces involved in cell growth, locomotion, and adhesion. Little is known at the molecular level that explains how such proteins are capable of reversibly stretching, in some cases to twice their resting …
