Peptide-based supramolecular systems chemistry seeks to mimic the ability of life forms to
use conserved sets of building blocks and chemical reactions to achieve a bewildering array …

Supramolecular assemblies are essential components of living organisms. Cellular
scaffolds, such as the cytoskeleton or the cell membrane, are formed via secondary …

Life is a non‐equilibrium state of matter maintained at the expense of energy. Nature uses
predominantly chemical energy stored in thermodynamically activated, but kinetically stable …

Supramolecular polymerization can be controlled in space and time by chemical fuels. A
nonassembled monomer is activated by the fuel and subsequently self-assembles into a …

In this review we intend to provide a relatively comprehensive summary of the work of
supramolecular hydrogelators after 2004 and to put emphasis particularly on the …

Enzymatic reactions and noncovalent (ie, supramolecular) interactions are two fundamental
nongenetic attributes of life. Enzymatic noncovalent synthesis (ENS) refers to a process …

Building on our ability to design and synthesise molecules and our understanding of the
noncovalent interactions between these molecules, the chemical sciences are currently …

The use of dissipative self-assembly driven by chemical reaction networks for the creation of
unique structures is gaining in popularity. In dissipative self-assembly, precursors are …

Supramolecular polymerization has been traditionally focused on the thermodynamic
equilibrium state, where one-dimensional assemblies reside at the global minimum of the …

This review discusses one-dimensional supramolecular polymers that form in aqueous
media. First, naturally occurring supramolecular polymers are described, in particular …
