Many species of tropical frogs use foams to protect delicate eggs and developing embryos against environmental challenges. These nests act as miniature ecosystems containing a spectrum of novel proteins and other macromolecules with functions related to foam stabilization and adhesion, resistance to microbial degradation, predation, or dehydration, providing a biocompatible environment for embryonic development.Thisworkformspartofourwiderstudyofthe intriguing physical and chemical properties of biofoams as unusual examples of biological soft matter.[2] Unusual chromophore and cross-links in ranasmurfin: a blue protein from the foam nests of a tropical frog.,Oke M, Ching RT, Carter LG, Johnson KA, Liu H, McMahon SA, White MF, Bloch C Jr, Botting CH, Walsh MA, Latiff AA, Kennedy MW, Cooper A, Naismith JH Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. 2008;47(41):7853-6. doi: 10.1002/anie.200802901.
