I’ve long been suspicious about attempts to see energy as the overwhelmingly central item setting both options and criteria for design in nature. Indeed, when I tried to create a conceptual framework for teaching biology to college students, I ended up putting energy distinctly second to information.

Abstract: Biomimetic materials processing (BMMP) is defined as the design and synthesis of new functional materials by refining knowledge and understanding of related biological products, structures, functions, and processes. By using BMMP, we can make a new nanotechnology, which is named “biomimetic nanotechnology.” This is based on ...

The Chemical Record, 2001
Synthetic organic chemistry normally achieves selectivity by manipulation of the intrinsic reactivity of the substrate, but enzyme use is quite a different principle. The geometry of the enzyme-substrate complex determines enzymatic selectivity, completely overwhelming any normal selective reactivities.

Biomimetic polyene cyclizations
Bioorganic Chemistry, 1976AbstractCertain polyenic substances having trans olefinic bonds in a 1,5 relationship can be induced to undergo stereospecific, non‐enzymic, cationic cyclization to give polycyclic products with all‐trans (“natural”) configuration. These transformations appear to mimic in principle the biogenetic conversion of squalene into polycyclic triterpenoids ...

AbstractSelf‐healing is a natural process common to all living organisms which provides increased longevity and the ability to adapt to changes in the environment. Inspired by this fitness‐enhancing functionality, which was tuned by billions of years of evolution, scientists and engineers have been incorporating self‐healing capabilities into synthetic

Biomimetic pulmonary surfactants
Life Sciences, 1994Considerable progress has been made in the development of defined mixtures of proteins or peptides with phospholipids which mimic the activity of natural pulmonary surfactants. Several of these biomimetic surfactants are active in animal models and clinical syndromes of surfactant deficiency.
