Peptide-directed self-assembly of hydrogels [PDF]

Acta Biomaterialia, 2009
This review focuses on the self-assembly of macromolecules mediated by the biorecognition of peptide/protein domains. Structures forming alpha-helices and beta-sheets have been used to mediate self-assembly into hydrogels of peptides, reactive copolymers and peptide motifs, block copolymers, and graft copolymers.
