resilin

elastic or "rubber-like" protein component of insect cuticle, usually associated with chitin fibers; Drosophila melanogaster CG15920 gene was cloned and expressed in E coli; contains 17 repeats of an amino-acid sequence and dityrosine crosslinks thought to be responsible for elasticity;

1.	Fatigue 01/01/2019 - "It may further improve the wear and fatigue resistance owing to resilin's damping behaviour. " 01/01/2016 - "Today, resilin is known to be responsible for the generation of deformability and flexibility in membrane and joint systems, the storage of elastic energy in jumping and catapulting systems, the enhancement of adaptability to uneven surfaces in attachment and prey catching systems, the reduction of fatigue and damage in reproductive, folding and feeding systems and the sealing of wounds in a traumatic reproductive system. " 09/01/2022 - "Resilin is a protein matrix in movable regions of the cuticle conferring resistance to fatigue. " 01/01/2021 - "Resilin, an insect structural protein, exhibits rubberlike elasticity characterized by low stiffness, high extensibility, efficient energy storage, exceptional resilience, and fatigue lifetime. " 08/20/2013 - "Resilin, an insect structural protein, exhibits rubber-like elasticity characterized by low stiffness, high extensibility, efficient energy storage, and exceptional resilience and fatigue lifetime. "
2.	Shock 01/01/2019 - "While performing outstanding and often-aggressive flight manoeuvres, resilin can provide shock absorption against mechanical damage from strong impacts. " 06/01/2018 - "Our results show variations of materials in different areas of the mouthparts: (i) resilin-dominated pads within the membranous transition between the labrum and the anteclypeus, which support mobility and might provide shock absorption, an adaptation against mechanical damage; (ii) high degrees of sclerotization in the incisivi of the mandibles, where high forces occur when crushing the prey's body wall.
