Multiple applications for resilin-like polypeptides have garnered renewed research interest since the report of the first recombinant resilin in 2005. The excellent mechanical properties of the resilin-like polypeptides has directed investigation toward their use as high-performance materials and in tissue engineering applications. It is widely acknowledged that cells interact and take cues from their microenvironment and, therefore, the development of polymeric scaffolds to mimic the extracellular matrix and drive desired cell or tissue responses has been of wide interest. To this end, our laboratories have developed a modular resilin-like polypeptide (RLP12) (see Fig. 20) that contains not only twelve repeats of the...
