Histidine, a versatile proteinogenic amino acid, plays a broad range of roles in all living
organisms and behaves as a key mediator of the interactions of biomolecules with inorganic …

The apparent piezoelectricity of biological materials is not yet fully understood at the
molecular level. In particular, dynamic noncovalent interactions, such as host–guest binding …

Supramolecular materials–materials that exploit non-covalent interactions–are increasing in
structural complexity, selectivity, function, stability, and scalability, but their use in …

Peptide self-assembly is the process by which peptide molecules aggregate into low
dimensional (1D, 2D) or 3D ordered materials with potential applications ranging from drug …

Supramolecular chemistry exploits weak, reversible interactions to form complex structures
from simple components, which offers a solution for designing new ferroelectric materials …

Ionic charge transport is a ubiquitous language of communication in biological systems. As
such, bioengineering is in constant need of innovative, soft, and biocompatible materials that …

Searching chemical space and expanding the structural diversity of supramolecular self-
assembly based on the development of combinatorial libraries is significant to the guided …

The chemical and physical properties of proteins are limited by the 20 canonical amino
acids. Genetic code manipulation allows for the incorporation of noncanonical amino acids …

The overuse of antibiotics to treat bacterial infections along with bacteria's propensity to form
biofilm communities has resulted in an alarming rise in drug-resistant microbes. Current …

Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) enzymes are over-expressed by some metastatic cancers,
in which they are responsible for the degradation and remodeling of the extracellular matrix …
