Immunolocalization of corneous proteins including a serine-tyrosine-rich beta-protein in the adhesive pads in the tokay gecko

Published: Apr 9, 2020
Abstract
Adhesive pads of geckos contain many thousands of nanoscale spatulae for the adhesion and movement along vertical or inverted surfaces. Setae are composed of interlaced corneous bundles made of small cysteine-glycine-rich corneous beta proteins (CBPs, formerly indicated as beta-keratins), embedded in a matrix material composed of cytoskeletal proteins and lipids. Negatively charged intermediate filament keratins (IFKs) and positively charged...
