Long fibers of DNA and protein are called chromatin. Chromatin is the material that makes up chromosomes in eukaryotic cells and is composed of DNA wrapped around histone proteins.
Spindle fibers are made of microtubules, which are long, thin protein structures made of tubulin. These fibers play a vital role in the segregation of chromosomes during cell division.
The protein fibers of the bone matrix are mainly composed of collagen, which provides strength and flexibility to bones. These fibers are embedded in a mineralized matrix made of calcium and phosphate crystals, which contribute to the hardness and rigidity of bones.
The three types of protein fibers in connective tissue are collagen, elastic, and reticular fibers. Collagen fibers provide strength and support, elastic fibers allow for stretch and recoil, and reticular fibers form a network to support other cells and structures.
Fibroblasts (Cell type 1) are primarily responsible for producing the protein fibers found in connective tissue proper, including collagen and elastin fibers. These fibers provide structural support and elasticity to the connective tissue.
Long fibers of DNA and protein are called chromatin. Chromatin is the material that makes up chromosomes in eukaryotic cells and is composed of DNA wrapped around histone proteins.

The solid protein fibers, which form a mesh over wounds, are called "fibrin".
Regenerated fibers are typically made from natural materials such as cellulose (e.g. viscose, lyocell) or protein (e.g. soy or milk protein). These fibers undergo a process of dissolving the raw material and spinning it into fibers, offering a sustainable alternative to synthetic fibers.
Elastic fibers made of the protein elastin has a coiled structure which allows it to stretch and recoil. Fibers can stretch up to 150 percent of their relaxed state length without breaking.
