Peptide-based stimuli-responsive biomaterials

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore recent advances in the design and engineering of materials wholly or principally constructed from peptides, and focus on materials that are able to respond to changes in their environment (pH, ionic strength, temperature, light, oxidation/reduction state, presence of small molecules or the catalytic activity of enzymes) by altering their macromolecular structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modulating adaptive immune responses to peptide self-assemblies.

TL;DR: This work investigates the molecular determinants and immunological mechanisms leading to the significant immunogenicity of the self-assembling peptide OVA-Q11, which has been shown previously to elicit strong antibody responses in mice, and shows that these responses can last for at least a year.
Journal ArticleDOI

From short peptides to nanofibers to macromolecular assemblies in biomedicine.

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of short peptides that form nanofibrous hydrogels that consist exclusively of simple amino acids and recent advances in peptide assembly motifs and applications is focused on.
Journal ArticleDOI

Designer nanomaterials using chiral self-assembling peptide systems and their emerging benefit for society

TL;DR: The field of chiral self-assembling peptide nanobiotechnology is growing in a number of directions that has led to many surprises in areas of novel materials, synthetic biology, clinical medicine and beyond.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fluorescence in nanobiotechnology: sophisticated fluorophores for novel applications.

TL;DR: This review covers the growing utility of different classes of fluorophores in nanobiotechnology, from both a photophysical and a chemical perspective.

Click Chemistry: Diverse Chemical Function from a Few Good Reactions.

TL;DR: In this paper, a set of powerful, highly reliable, and selective reactions for the rapid synthesis of useful new compounds and combinatorial libraries through heteroatom links (C-X-C), an approach called click chemistry is defined, enabled, and constrained by a handful of nearly perfect "springloaded" reactions.

Peptidotriazoles on solid phase: [1,2,3]-triazoles by regiospecific copper(i)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of terminal alkynes to azides.

TL;DR: A novel regiospecific copper(I)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of terminal alkynes to azides on solid-phase is reported, and the X-ray structure of 2-azido-2-methylpropanoic acid has been solved, to yield structural information on the 1, 3-dipoles entering the reaction.

Bioconjugation by Copper(I)-Catalyzed Azide-Alkyne [3 + 2] Cycloaddition

TL;DR: The copper-catalyzed cycloaddition reaction between azides and alkynes functions efficiently in aqueous solution in the presence of a tris(triazolyl)amine ligand to make rapid and reliable covalent connections to micromolar concentrations of protein decorated with either of the reactive moieties.
