11. Miroshnikov et al . ( 1998 ) are among the researchers who have attempted to synthesize fibrous proteins . 12. The blobs were made of almost pure collagen, the fibrous protein found in connective tissue, bone and cartilage. 13. Other than water, the mesoglea is composed of several substances including fibrous proteins like collagen and heparan sulphate proteoglycans. 14. Estrogen is also essential to maintaining a fibrous protein called collagen, which makes up much of the breast's connective tissue. 15. Therefore, in theory it is possible to rationally design fibrous proteins by selecting a sequence that will populate a specific ensemble. 16. Doctors also suspect that it tightens the skin by drawing together underlying collagen, the fibrous protein that gives skin its spring. 17. In addition, the cells showed fibrous protein deposits that closely resemble Lewy bodies, deposits found in brain cells of Parkinson's patients. 18. She holds a patent on fibrous protein fusions and use thereof in the formation of advanced organic / inorganic composite materials. 19. This structure is somewhat similar to that adopted in the fibrous protein collagen, which is composed mainly of proline, hydroxyproline, and glycine. 20. This kind of regular repetition and high glycine content is found in only a few other fibrous proteins , such as silk fibroin.
