Many naturally occurring biopolymers have unique structures and
unique physical or mechanical properties. The understan- ding of
the moleclar basisof these biomolecules, their syn- thesis,
assembly and processing is a prerequisit for any ap- plication to
the design of novel biomolecular materials. Se- veral classes of
biopolymers are sampled in depth in this volume, such as
nanolaminated ceramics, adhesive proteins, eggshellproteins,
protein fibres and silk which are synthe- sized by a variety of
organisms (mulluscs, parasitic trema- todes, fish and insects). The
reader will be introduced to the biological systems to understand
Nature's use of each biopolymer and the highly differentiated cells
responsible for their synthesis. Corresponding to the variety of
organ- isms and possible applications of biopolymers, the combined
expertise of interdisciplinary teams of scientists - such as the
authors of this volume - have the greatestopportunity to decipher
and exploit Nature's skill in biopolymer engi- neering.
