... have focused on conjugating multiple Nb clones — of identical or unique antigen cognates — together. In vivo and in vitro approaches, including flexible linkers, antibody domains, self-assembling coiled coils, chemical conjugation, and self-clustering hydrophobic sequences, have been employed...

... triglycerides, generates amphiphilic monoglycerides and fatty acids that can self-assemble into a diverse array of liquid crystalline structures. Tracking the dynamic changes in self-assembly of the lipid digestion products during digestion has recently been made possible using synchrotron-based small angle X...

... toward using bacterial biofilms as platforms for the synthesis and secretion of programmable nanomaterials are described. Particular focus is given to self-assembling functional amyloids found in bacterial biofilms as re-engineerable modular nanomolecular components. Potential applications and existing...

...J.A.R. Worrall; M. Górna; X.Y. Pei; D.R. Spring; R.L. Nicholson; B.F. Luisi The principles of self-assembly are described for naturally occurring macromolecules and for complex assemblies formed from simple synthetic constituents. Many biological molecules owe their function and specificity...

...V. Jayawarna; A. Smith; J.E. Gough; R.V. Ulijn The design of self-assembled peptide-based structures for three-dimensional cell culture and tissue repair has been a key objective in biomaterials science for decades. In search of the simplest possible peptide system that can self-assemble, we...

... strategy and a stepwise addition of suitable complementary oligonucleotides. The resulting structures could recreate a large range of regular distribution of patterned redox and absorbing centres separated by fully tuneable distances and geometry. Kinetic parameters for the self-assembly of building blocks...
