Abstract
The article presents a study which obtained transcriptome assemblies from 1098 species of spiders to catalog silk gene sequences and measured the mechanical, thermal, structural, and hydration properties of the dragline silks of 446 species. Topics discussed include insights from sequence analysis, overview of the physical properties of 446 spider silk samples, and transcriptome sequencing and assembly.
