Biomimetic organization: Octapeptide self-assembly into nanotubes of viral capsid-like dimension.
The controlled self-assembly of complex molecules into well defined hierarchical structures is a promising route for fabricating nanostructures. These nanoscale structures can be realized by naturally occurring proteins such as tobacco mosaic virus, capsid proteins, tubulin, actin, etc. Here, we report a simple alternative method based on self-assembling nanotubes formed by a synthetic therapeu...
متن کاملSelf-assembly of like-charged nanoparticles into microscopic crystals.
Like-charged nanoparticles, NPs, can assemble in water into large, faceted crystals, each made of several million particles. These NPs are functionalized with mixed monolayers comprising ligands terminating in carboxylic acid group ligands as well as positively charged quaternary ammonium ligands. The latter groups give rise to electrostatic interparticle repulsions which partly offset the hydr...
متن کاملAnalysis of Human Papillomavirus Capsid Proteins: Insights into Capsid Assembly
Papillomaviruses (PVs) are double stranded (ds)-DNA viruses (~8-kbp), which infect mucosal and cutaneous epithelial cells from various mammalian species, causing tumors in both epithelial cell-types [22, 48-50, 64, 65]. During the early-phase of an HPV infection; the genome is maintained within the basal epithelium establishing the primary infection, while during the latephase, the capsid prote...
متن کاملDipolar driven spontaneous self assembly of superparamagnetic Co nanoparticles into micrometric rice-grain like structures.
Superparamagnetic single crystal single domain Co nanoparticles of 6 nm in diameter evaporated onto highly pyrolytic oriented graphite spontaneously self-assemble into super structures with an elongated shape. These structures have been studied by optical and scanning electron microscopies, atomic and magnetic force microscopy, electron dispersive X-ray analysis, and SQUID magnetometry. We prop...
متن کاملOriented assembly of anisotropic nanoparticles into frame-like superstructures
It is fascinating but challenging for nanoscientists to organize nanoparticles (NPs) into ordered architectures just as it is for chemists to manipulate atoms and molecules to form functional molecules and supramolecules. We explore a strategy to assemble anisotropic NPs into open frame-like superstructures via oriented attachment (OA), experimentally realizing a nanoscale analog to the bonding...
