There is an emerging strong demand for smart environmentally responsive protein-based biomaterials with improved adhesion properties, especially underwater adhesion for potential environmental and medical applications. Based on the fusion of elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs), SpyCatcher and SpyTag modules, biosynthetic barnacle-derived protein was genetically engineered and self-assembled with an enhanced adhesion ability and temperature response. The water resistance ability of the synthetic protein biopolymer with a network structure increased to 98.8 from 58.5% of the original Cp19k, and the nonaqueous adhesion strength enhanced to 1.26 from 0.68 MPa of Cp19k. The biopolymer showed an improved adhesion ability toward hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces as well as diatomite powders. The combination of functional module ELPs and SpyTag/SpyCatcher could endow the biosynthetic protein with temperature response, an insoluble form above 42 °C and a soluble form at 4 °C. The combinational advantages including temperature response and adhesion performance make the self-assembled protein an excellent candidate in surgical adhesion, underwater repair, and surface modification of various coatings. Distinct from the traditional approach of utilizing solely ELPs, the integration of short ELPs with Spy partners exhibited a synergistic enhancement in the temperature response. The synergistic effects of two functional modules provide a technical method and insight for designing smart self-assembled protein-based biopolymers.
