The coiled coil is a superhelical protein structural motif that consists of two or more α-helical
peptides that are wrapped around each other in superhelical fashion. Coiled coils are …

In this tutorial review we give an introduction into the field of stimulus responsive peptide
based materials illustrated by some recent and current developments. We have tried to …

A series of nine, frustrated, multidomain peptides is described in which forces favoring self-
assembly into a nanofiber versus those favoring disassembly could be easily modified. The …

An important goal in supramolecular chemistry is to achieve controlled self-assembly of
molecules into well-defined nanostructures and the subsequent control over macroscopic …

Stimuli-responsive proteins have gained a wide spread interest as functional biomaterials in
drug delivery area. However, particular attention has been diverted to peptide-based …

Stimuli‐responsive peptides and proteins are an exciting class of smart biomaterials for
various applications and have received significant attention over the past decades. A wide …

The α-helical coiled coil is one of the best-studied and most well-understood protein folding
motifs. In particular, the coiled coil can be made to self-assemble into a nanofibrous …

Biological self‐assembly is very complex and results in highly functional materials. In effect,
it takes a bottom‐up approach using biomolecular building blocks of precisely defined …

Biomolecular assembly is a key driving force in nearly all life processes, providing structure,
information storage, and communication within cells and at the whole organism level. These …

A reconstructive phase transition has been found and studied in ultrashort di-and tripeptide
nanostructures, self-assembled from biomolecules of different compositions and origin such …
