In nature, the self-assembly of sequence-specific biopolymers into hierarchical structures
plays an essential role in the construction of functional biomaterials. To develop synthetic …

Unlike natural macromolecules (eg, nucleic acids and proteins) possessing precisely
defined molar mass, chain sequence, chirality, and topology, synthetic polymers are typically …

Catalysis enables many aspects of modern life, including fuels, products, plastics, and
medicines. Recent advances in catalysis have enabled us to realize higher efficiencies and …

Since the foundation of macromolecular science by Staudinger, advances in polymer
chemistry have unveiled enormous avenues for controlling chemical structures at the …

Precise sequence‐defined polymers (SDPs) with uniform chain‐to‐chain structure including
chain length, unit sequence, and end functionalities represent the pinnacle of sophistication …

Peptoids are a diverse family of sequence-defined oligomers of N-substituted glycine
monomers, that can be readily accessed by the solid-phase submonomer synthesis method …

Peptoids are a class of highly customizable biomimetic foldamers that retain properties from
both proteins and polymers. It has been shown that peptoids can adopt peptide-like …

A long-standing challenge in bioinspired materials is to design and synthesize synthetic
materials that mimic the sophisticated structures and functions of natural biomaterials, such …

Polypeptoids, with similar structure to polypeptides, are nowadays rising stars due to their
excellent solubility, processibility, enzymatic stability, and biocompatibility. Attractive …

We combine experiment and simulation to develop a powerful, validated approach for
characterizing the conformational landscapes of disordered polypeptoids. Polypeptoids …
