Crystalline molecular machines: encoding supramolecular dynamics into molecular structure.
Crystalline molecular machines represent an exciting new branch of crystal engineering and materials science with important implications to nanotechnology. Crystalline molecular machines are crystals built with molecules that are structurally programmed to respond collectively to mechanic, electric, magnetic, or photonic stimuli to fulfill specific functions. One of the main challenges in their...
متن کاملSupramolecular assembly dynamics.
R progress in the synthetic chemistry of supramolecular assemblies has created many new structural types. With the proliferation of new structures has come increasing interest in the properties and behavior of these assemblies. Does the cooperativity of constituent components lend an assembly new properties distinct from the components themselves? Do the properties of an assembly make it suitab...
متن کاملThe supramolecular structure of melanin†
The melanins are an important class of multifunctional bio-macromolecules with fascinating and potentially useful electronic and optoelectronic properties. They are one of the last major biomacromolecular systems where we do not know how the constituent molecules organise. This knowledge gap hinders attempts to map their properties and function and is a particular issue in understanding their r...
متن کاملSupramolecular structure of membrane-associated polypeptides by combining solid-state NMR and molecular dynamics simulations.
Elemental biological functions such as molecular signal transduction are determined by the dynamic interplay between polypeptides and the membrane environment. Determining such supramolecular arrangements poses a significant challenge for classical structural biology methods. We introduce an iterative approach that combines magic-angle spinning solid-state NMR spectroscopy and atomistic molecul...
متن کاملInternal Dynamics of a Supramolecular Nanofiber
A large variety of functional self-assembled supramolecular nanostructures have been reported over recent decades. The experimental approach to these systems initially focused on the design of molecules with specific interactions that lead to discrete geometric structures, and more recently on the kinetics and mechanistic pathways of self-assembly. However, there remains a major gap in our unde...
