An engineered polypeptide includes at least two units, wherein each unit includes a polypeptide of SEQ ID NO: 4, a polypeptide of SEQ ID NO: 5, a polypeptide with 90% or greater homology to SEQ ID NO: 4, or a polypeptide with 90% or greater homology to SEQ ID NO: 5, wherein the engineered polypeptide does not comprise SEQ ID NO: 12 or SEQ ID NO: 13. Further described is a synthetic materials including the peptides. Also included are synthetic materials including polypeptide of any one of SEQ ID NOs: 9-32, a polypeptide with 90% or greater homology any one of SEQ ID NOs: 9-32, a polypeptide encoded by any one of SEQ ID NOs. 57-79, or a polypeptide with 90% or greater homology to a polypeptide encoded by any one of SEQ ID NOs. 57-79.
