Exploiting Peptide Self-Assembly for the Development of Minimalistic Viral Mimetics

Exploiting Peptide Self-Assembly for the Development of Minimalistic Viral Mimetics

Viruses are natural supramolecular nanostructures that form spontaneously by molecular self-assembly of complex biomolecules. Peptide self-assembly is a versatile tool that allows mimicking viruses by creating their simplified versions through the design of functional, supramolecular materials with...
