Computational design of self-assembling protein nanomaterials with atomic level accuracy.

We describe a general computational method for designing proteins that self-assemble to a desired symmetric architecture. Protein building blocks are docked together symmetrically to identify complementary packing arrangements, and low-energy protein-protein interfaces are then designed between the building blocks in order to drive self-assembly. We used trimeric protein building blocks to desi...

Nanohedra: using symmetry to design self assembling protein cages, layers, crystals, and filaments.

A general strategy is described for designing proteins that self assemble into large symmetrical nanomaterials, including molecular cages, filaments, layers, and porous materials. In this strategy, one molecule of protein A, which naturally forms a self-assembling oligomer, A(n), is fused rigidly to one molecule of protein B, which forms another self-assembling oligomer, B(m). The result is a f...

Dynamic behaviors of lipid-like self-assembling peptide A6D and A6K nanotubes.

Nanoscience and nanotechnology require development of nanomaterials that are amiable for molecular design from bottom up. Molecular designer self-assembling peptides are one of such nanomaterials that will become increasingly important for the endeavor. Peptides have not only been used in all aspects of biomedical and pharmaceutical research and medical products, but also have had enormous impa...

Programmable Three-Dimensional Self-Assembly

The development of modern technology has emphasized the utility of nanomaterials and efficient design of nanostructures. Self-assembly is a powerful, bottom-up approach for the fabrication of nanomaterials. The Hammer and Tongs method that we have developed signifies the advent of a holistic approach to programmable, three-dimensional selfassembly. This method integrates biochemistry and chemic...

Dense surface functionalization using peptides that recognize differences in organized structures of self-assembling nanomaterials.

We obtained novel peptides that selectively bind to self-assembling peptide nanomaterials from a random peptide library displayed on phages. Affinity-dependent peptide screening gave phage clones displaying peptides with selective affinities against two kinds of highly networked nanofibers constructed of β-sheet peptides. Both peptide nanofibers have similar primary structures. Binding analyses...
