Sea stars have remarkable regenerative capabilities. A peptide, KASH2, identified in the biofluid of the common sea star Asterias rubens appears to be involved with the wound‐healing response in the organism. Here, we show the 3D structure of KASH2 adopts a disulfide‐directed β‐hairpin fold, a fold only previously found in arachnids, and does not show ...
