The self‐assembly of several classes of amphiphilic peptides is reviewed, and selected
applications are discussed. We discuss recent work on the self‐assembly of lipopeptides …

Most therapeutic agents suffer from poor solubility, rapid clearance from the blood stream, a
lack of targeting, and often poor translocation ability across cell membranes. Drug/gene …

Secondary structures such as α‐helix and β‐sheet are the major structural motifs within the
three‐dimensional geometry of proteins. Therefore, structure transitions from β‐sheet to α …

Self-assembled nanofibers are ubiquitous in nature and serve as inspiration for the design
of supramolecular hydrogels. A multicomponent approach offers the possibility of enhancing …

Peptide‐based hydrogel biomaterials have emerged as an excellent strategy for immune
system modulation. Peptide‐based hydrogels are supramolecular materials that self …

Supramolecular hydrogels self-assembled from short peptides have shown great potential
as biomimetic extracellular matrices with controllable properties designed at the molecular …

Highlights•We describe the most recent methods to study DNA from electrons to
chromosomes.•Methods were classified as: electronic, atomistic, coarse grained, and …

Life's diverse molecular functions are largely based on only a small number of highly
conserved building blocks–the twenty canonical amino acids. These building blocks are …

Nature is an important inspirational source for scientists, and presents complex and elegant
examples of adaptive and intelligent systems created by self-assembly. Significant effort has …

Molecular hydrogels have been widely explored in various biomedical applications, such as
cell culture, tissue engineering and drug delivery. Peptide-based hydrogel nanoparticles …
