Molecular Modeling of Self-Assembling Peptides
ACS Applied Bio Materials, 2023Peptide epitopes mediate as many as 40% of protein-protein interactions and fulfill signaling, inhibition, and activation roles within the cell. Beyond protein recognition, some peptides can self- or coassemble into stable hydrogels, making them a readily available source of biomaterials.

Peptide Synthesis and Self-Assembly
2011Peptides and proteins are the most diverse building blocks in biomolecular self-assembly in terms of chemistry, nanostructure formation and functionality. Self-assembly is an intrinsic property of peptides. In this chapter, we attempt to address the following issues: How can we synthesize a self-assembling peptide? What are the fundamental physical and

Self-Assembling Peptide Solution Accelerates Hemostasis
Advances in Wound Care, 2021Objective: One of the leading causes of death following traumatic injury is exsanguination. Biological material-based hemostatic agents such as fibrin, thrombin, and albumin have a high risk for causing infection. Synthetic peptide-based hemostatic agents offer an attractive alternative.

Self-Assembling Peptide Nanotubes
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 1996The general design criteria and synthesis of four new peptide-based solid-state tubular array structures are described. Peptide nanotubes, which are extended tubular β-sheet-like structures, are constructed by the self-assembly of flat, ring-shaped peptide subunits made up of alternating d- and l-amino acid residues.

Lipid-like Self-Assembling Peptides
Accounts of Chemical Research, 2012One important question in prebiotic chemistry is the search for simple structures that might have enclosed biological molecules in a cell-like space. Phospholipids, the components of biological membranes, are highly complex. Instead, we looked for molecules that might have been available on prebiotic Earth.

Peptide amphiphile self-assembly
EPL (Europhysics Letters), 2017Self-assembly is a process whereby molecules organize into structures with hierarchical order and complexity, often leading to functional materials. Biomolecules such as peptides, lipids and DNA are frequently involved in self-assembly, and this leads to materials of interest for a wide variety of applications in biomedicine, photonics, electronics ...

Self‐Assembling Peptide‐Based Functional Biomaterials
ChemBioChem, 2022AbstractPeptides can self‐assemble into various hierarchical nanostructures through noncovalent interactions and form functional materials exhibiting excellent chemical and physical properties, which have broad applications in bio‐/nanotechnology. The self‐assembly mechanism, self‐assembly morphology of peptide supramolecular architecture and their ...
