The assembly of natural proteinaceous biopolymers into macro-scale architectures is of
great importance in synthetic biology, soft-material science and regenerative therapy. The …

Structures that exhibit fractal geometries are typically self-similar and iterative. Fractal
patterns appear in nature as approximations of mathematical abstractions, yet exist as …

Cell responses, such as positioning, morphological changes, proliferation, and apoptosis,
are the result of complex chemical, topographical, and biological stimuli. Here we show the …

In situ self-assembly in living systems is referred to as the processes that regulate assembly
by stimuli-responsive reactions at target sites under physiological conditions. Due to the …

Spontaneous organization of small-molecule building blocks into highly ordered structures,
commonly referred to as “self-assembly,” is receiving increasing interest for fabricating …

It is becoming increasingly evident that cell biology research can be considerably advanced
through the use of bioengineered tools enabled by nanoscale technologies. Recent …

Self‐assembly is a ubiquitous process in biology where it plays numerous important roles
and underlies the formation of a wide variety of complex biological structures. Over the past …

With the increasing advances in the basic understanding of pathogenesis mechanism and
fabrication of advanced biological materials, protein nanomaterials are being developed for …

This chapter reviews the applications of self-assembling proteins and peptides toward
designing novel biomimetic nanomaterials and their potential applications in …

Biomaterials designed at the molecular and supramolecular levels to interact with cells,
biomolecules such as growth factors and biopolymers, and pharmaceuticals will all have a …
