The sophisticated, elegant protein-polymers designed by nature can serve as inspiration to redesign and biomanufacture protein-based materials using synthetic biology. Historically, petro-based polymeric have dominated industrial activities, consequently transforming our way of living. While this benefits humans, the fabrication disposal these causes environmental sustainability challenges. Fortunately, biopolymers compete with potentially surpass performance polymers because they be biologically produced degraded in an environmentally friendly fashion. This paper reviews four groups polymers, including fibrous proteins (collagen, silk fibroin, fibrillin, keratin), elastomeric (elastin, resilin, wheat glutenin), adhesive/matrix (spongin conchiolin), cyanophycin. We discuss connection between protein sequence, structure, function, biomimetic applications. Protein engineering techniques, such directed evolution rational design, used improve functionality natural materials. For example, inclusion specific domains, particularly those observed structural proteins, collagen, enables creation novel exceptional mechanical properties adaptability. review also discusses recent advancements production application new through approach biology combined biomimetics, providing insight for future research development cutting-edge bio-inspired products. Protein-based that utilize nature's designs a base, then modified at intersection engineering, may provide mankind more sustainable

Conventional passive packaging plays a crucial role in food manufacturing by protecting foods from various external influences. Most materials are polymer-based plastics derived fossil carbon sources, which favored for their versatility, aesthetic appeal, and cost-effectiveness. However, the extensive use of these poses significant environmental challenges due to fossil-based origins persistence environment. Global plastic consumption is expected nearly triple 2060, exacerbating ecological crisis. Moreover, globalization has increased access diverse range around world, heightening importance providing healthier safer with extended shelf life. In response challenges, there growing shift eco-friendly active that not only protects but also preserves authentic qualities food, surpassing roles conventional packaging.
