We discuss a nanoengineering approach for supramolecular chemistry and self assembly.
The collective properties and biofunctionalities of molecular ensembles depend not only on …

The fabrication of nanoscale devices requires architectural templates on which to position
functional molecules in complex arrangements. Protein scaffolds are particularly promising …

We describe a general computational method for designing proteins that self-assemble to a
desired symmetric architecture. Protein building blocks are docked together symmetrically to …

The self-assembly of proteins into highly ordered nanoscale architectures is a hallmark of
biological systems. The sophisticated functions of these molecular machines have inspired …

The use of bionanostructures in real-world applications will require precise control over
biomolecular self-assembly and the ability to scale up production of these materials. A …

A wooden house frame consists of many different lumber pieces, but because of the
regularity of these building blocks, the structure can be designed using straightforward …
