DNA-Templated Self-Assembly of Protein Arrays and Highly Conductive Nanowires
A DNA nanostructure consisting of four four-arm junctions oriented with a square aspect ratio was designed and constructed. Programmable self-assembly of 4 x 4 tiles resulted in two distinct lattice morphologies: uniform-width nanoribbons and two-dimensional nanogrids, which both display periodic square cavities. Periodic protein arrays were achieved by templated self-assembly of streptavidin o...
متن کاملPatterning nanofibrils through the templated growth of multiple modified amyloid peptides
There has been considerable interest in the patterning of functionalized nanowires because of the potential applications of these materials to the construction of nanodevices. A variety of biomolecular building blocks containing amyloid peptides have been used to functionalize nanowires. However, the patterning of self-assembled nanowires can be challenging because of the difficulties associate...
متن کاملControlled silica deposition on self-assembled peptide nanostructures via varying molecular structures of short amphiphilic peptides.
Cationic amphiphilic peptides are highly similar to native silaffins and silicateins for biosilicification in terms of their composition, amphiphilicity, and self-assembling propensity. To understand the relationship between organic molecular structures, molecular self-assembly and silica morphogenesis during biosilicification, we have prepared a series of short self-assembling peptide amphiphi...
متن کاملAn ice-templated, pH-tunable self-assembly route to hierarchically porous graphene nanoscroll networks.
Porous graphene nanostructures are of great interest for applications in catalysis and energy storage. However, the fabrication of three-dimensional (3D) macroporous graphene nanostructures with controlled morphology, porosity and surface area still presents significant challenges. Here we introduce an ice-templated self-assembly approach for the integration of two-dimensional graphene nanoshee...
متن کاملVersatile multi-functionalization of protein nanofibrils for biosensor applications.
Protein nanofibrils offer advantages over other nanostructures due to the ease in their self-assembly and the versatility of surface chemistry available. Yet, an efficient and general methodology for their post-assembly functionalization remains a significant challenge. We introduce a generic approach, based on biotinylation and thiolation, for the multi-functionalization of protein nanofibrils...
