In this review, we describe the recent advances in supramolecular helical assemblies
formed from chiral and achiral small molecules, oligomers (foldamers), and helical and …

Hierarchical materials that exhibit order over multiple length scales are ubiquitous in nature.
Because hierarchy gives rise to unique properties and functions, many have sought …

Peptide self-assemblies show intriguing and tunable physicochemical properties, and thus
have been attracting increasing interest over the last two decades. However, the micro/nano …

Unnatural helical peptidic foldamers have attracted considerable attention owing to their
unique folding behaviours, diverse artificial protein binding mechanisms, and promising …

Peptides that contain β-amino acids display stable secondary structures, such as helices
and sheets, and are often referred to as foldamers. Cyclic β2, 3-amino acids (cβAAs), such …

Enzymatic reactions and self-assembly are two fundamental attributes of cells. It is not
surprising that one can use enzyme-instructed self-assembly (EISA)—the integration of …

Due to their unique characteristics, which are not shared by canonical α-peptides, peptides
that contain stretches of consecutive β-amino acids are attractive scaffolds for novel peptide …

The discovery of piezoelectricity in self-assembled peptide nanostructures opens an avenue
to a new regime of piezoelectric materials and enables the fundamental investigation of …

Different classes of foldamers, which are synthetic oligomers that adopt well-defined
conformations in solution, have been the subject of extensive studies devoted to the …

The use of peptidomimetic scaffolds is a promising strategy for the inhibition of protein–
protein interactions (PPIs). Herein, we demonstrate that sulfono-γ-AApeptides can be …
