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 …

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

Aromatic peptide amphiphiles are gaining popularity as building blocks for the bottom-up
fabrication of nanomaterials, including gels. These materials combine the simplicity of small …

The self-assembly and structural and functional properties of peptide conjugates containing
bulky terminal aromatic substituents are reviewed with a particular focus on bioactivity …

Conspectus Stimuli-responsive hydrogels are intriguing biomaterials useful for
spatiotemporal controlled release of drugs, cells, and biological cues, cell engineering for …

Highly ordered arrays of π-conjugated molecules are often viewed as a prerequisite for
effective charge-transporting materials. Studies involving these materials have traditionally …

A number of Fmoc amino acids can be effective low molecular weight hydrogelators. The
type of gel formed depends on the amino acid used and, in the case of FmocF, the final pH …

Enzymatic noncovalent synthesis (ENS), a process that integrates enzymatic reactions and
supramolecular (ie, noncovalent) interactions for spatial organization of higher-order …

As a consequence of the self‐assembly of small organic molecules in water, supramolecular
hydrogels are evolving from serendipitous events during organic synthesis to become a new …

Phenylacetyl-peptide amphiphiles were designed, which upon cleavage by a disease-
associated enzyme reconfigure from micellar aggregates to fibres. Upon this morphological …
