Self-assembly properties of a model RING domain [PDF]
RING domains act in a variety of essential cellular processes but have no general function ascribed to them. Here, we observe that purified arenaviral protein Z, constituted almost entirely by its RING domain, self-assembles in vitro into spherical structures that resemble functional bodies ...

Self-Assembly and Viscoelastic Properties of Semifluorinated Polyesters
The structure and dynamics of polyesters composed from a rigid aromatic backbone and oxyalkylperfluoroalkyl side chains have been studied using differential scanning calorimetry, small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering, pressure-volume-temperature measurements and rheology. The system was found to undergo three phase transitions.

Dihydrolevoglucosenone (Cyrene) as a bio-based green alternative to organic solvents for the preparation of supramolecular gels consisting of self-assembling dipeptide derivatives [PDF]
Herein, we describe the use of Cyrene, a bio-based green solvent, to prepare supramolecular gels composed of self-assembling dipeptide derivatives. The gelation behavior was evaluated using a conventional tube-inversion method.

Self-assembling peptides (SAPs) have enormous potential in medical and biological applications, particularly noninvasive tumor therapy. SAPs self-assembly is governed by multiple non-covalent interactions and results in the formation of a variety of ...

Further Properties of Self-assembly by Hairpin Formation [PDF]
We continue the investigation of three operations on words and languages with motivations coming from DNA biochemistry, namely unbounded and bounded hairpin completion and hairpin lengthening. We first show that each of these operations can be used for replacing the third step, the most laborious one, of the solution to the CNF-SAT reported in [28]. As

N‐Substituted Azacalixphyrins: Synthesis, Properties, and Self‐Assembly [PDF]
AbstractPre‐ and postintroduction of substituents with respect to the macrocyclization step leads to previously unknown N‐substituted azacalixphyrins. The stepwise synthetic approach has been studied in detail to highlight the key role of the N‐substituents of the precursors and/or intermediates in terms of reactivity.

A synthesis of a cationic moiety and fluorescent moieties containing amphiphilic 1,4-dihydropyridine (1,4-DHP) derivatives was performed starting with the Hantzsch-type cyclization of dodecyl acetoacetate, phenylaldehyde and ammonium acetate. Bromination

Oligosaccharides Self-Assemble and Show Intrinsic Optical Properties [PDF]
Self-assembling peptides and oligonucleotides have given rise to synthetic materials with several applications in nanotechnology. Aggregation of synthetic oligosaccharides into well-defined architectures has not been reported even though natural polysaccharides, such as cellulose and chitin, are key structural components of biomaterials.
