Abductin

Abductin is a naturally occurring elastomeric protein found in the hinge ligament of bivalve mollusks. It is unique as it is the only natural elastomer with compressible elasticity, as compared to resilin, spider silk, and elastin. Its name was proposed from the fact that it functions as the abductor of the valves of bivalve mollusks.
