The development of such structures is highly significant in the field of protein-based materials since they can impart mechanical robustness and water stability to the final material. 17 , 45 − 47 Here, the development of the characteristic ThT fluorescence emission peak at λ em = 490 nm was observed for suspensions of BSF protein resuspended in a 0.1 M NaOH solution ( Figure S2A ), confirming their propensity to self-assemble via intermolecular β-sheets under the film-forming conditions.
