This property is maintained at a wide range of frequencies in an insect protein containing many dityrosine and trityrosine crosslinks. Both a “series” and a “parallel” component with this property are described in Hill’s three element model. Worm-like chains such as DNA inherently have an entropic (-5[1])form of this property, while electrostatic interactions within PEVK regions cause a common example of this property's enthalpic form. This property is conferred by the I-band of the giant protein (*) titin (10[1]-5[1])(“TAI-tin”). Deficiencies in alpha-1 antitrypsin lead to breakdown of tissue (10[1])with this property in the lungs, (10[1])which may cause COPD. Fibrils (10[1])of collagen, fibronectin and a protein named for this property are a primary component of the extracellular matrix. For 10 points, name this property of proteins that return to their original length after being stretched. (10[2])■END■
