Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Self-assembling molecules are central to a plethora of processes found in nature, biotechnology and even disease. The importance of the non-covalent interaction of monomers to the formation of fibrillar assemblies is evident in the repeated use of this mechanism throughout nature, from essential cellular processes such as the formation of the cytoskeleton to the production of silk. Further, it has been recognised in the last two decades that a self-assembly mechanism, that is the formation of amyloid, underpins the pathology of protein misfolding diseases; it is therefore essential to dissect these mechanisms. Despite recent technological and model system developments, self-assembling molecules remain challenging to investigate. Using combined structural and biophysical characterisations of penta- and hexa-peptide self-assembling model systems these investigations shed further light on the structure of amyloid-like fibrils. The elucidation of the structures of these fibrillar systems not only has implications for disease but also makes them well placed for consideration for biotechnological applications. In reflecting upon how cross-ß structural architectures can be organised in the fibrillar state, a molecular and supramolecular model of fibrils formed by a fragment of!-synuclein is reported. The fibrils are found to consist of a novel and elaborate cross-ß architecture that leads to a helical supramolecular assembly spanning length scales previously unobserved for such a system. Where self-assembly is a useful route to supramolecular structure formation, the use of low molecular weight gelator (LMWG) peptides to create fibrillar structures with defined material properties is also explored. The complex link between molecular structure, self-assembled architecture, fibril formation, fibril interaction and ultimately bulk material properties is described. It is found that the determinants of self-assembly are distinct from the determinants of gelation and so future LMWG design will have to consider both individually. This work presents methodological advances in the characterisation of self-assembled structures. The investigations presented here have relevance for disease related processes but also to the technological use of these systems as materials. Finally, this work emphasises the beauty of the extravagant, yet elegant connection between molecular interaction and supramolecular selfassembly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The self-organization of bionanostructures into well-defined functional machineries found in nature has been a priceless source of ideas for researchers. The molecules of life, proteins, DNA, RNA, etc., as well as the structures and forms that these molecules assume serve as rich sources of ideas for scientists or engineers who are interested in developing bio-inspired materials for innovations in biomedical fields. In nature, molecular self-assembly is a process by which complex three-dimensional structures with well-defined functions are constructed, starting from simple building blocks such as proteins and peptides. This book introduces readers to the theory and mechanisms of peptide self-assembly processes. The authors present the more common peptide self-assembled building blocks and discuss how researchers from different fields can apply self-assembling principles to bionanotechnology applications. The advantages and challenges are mentioned together with examples that reflect the state of the art of the use of self-assembled peptide building blocks in nanotechnology.

This book was released on 2007-05-08 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One ofthe major drivers in biological research is the establishment ofstructures and functions of the 50,000 or so proteins in our bodies. Each has a characteristic- dimensional structure, highly "ordered" yet "disordered"! This structure is essential for a protein's function and, significantly, it must be sustained in the competitive and complex environment of the living cell. It is now being recognised that when a cell loses control, proteins can se- assemble into more complex supermolecular structures such as the amyloid fibres and plaques associated with the pathogenesis of prion (CJD) or age-related (Alzheimer's) diseases. This is a pointer to the wider significance of the self-assembling properties of polypeptides. It has been long known that, in silk, polypeptides are assembled into- sheet structures which impart on the material its highly exploitable properties of flexibility combined with high tensile strength. But only now emerging is the recognition that peptides can Self-assemble into a wide variety of non-protein-like structures, including fibrils, fibres, tubules, sheets and monolayers. These are exciting observations and, more so, the potential for materials and medical exploitations is so wide ranging that over 80 scientists from Europe, USA, Japan and Israel. met 1-6 July 1999 in Crete, to discuss the wide-ranging implications of these novel developments. There was a spirit of excitement about the workshop indicative of an important new endeavor. The emerging perception is that of a new class of materials set to become commercially viable early in the 21st century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanotechnology has received tremendous interest over the last decade, not only from the scientific community but also from a business perspective and from the general public. Although nanotechnology is still at the largely unexplored frontier of science, it has the potential for extremely exciting technological innovations that will have an enormous impact on areas as diverse as information technology, medicine, energy supply and probably many others. The miniturization of devices and structures will impact the speed of devices and information storage capacity. More importantly, though, nanotechnology should lead to completely new functional devices as nanostructures have fundamentally different physical properties that are governed by quantum effects. When nanometer sized features are fabricated in materials that are currently used in electronic, magnetic, and optical applications, quantum behavior will lead to a set of unprecedented properties. The interactions of nanostructures with biological materials are largely unexplored. Future work in this direction should yield enabling technologies that allows the study and direct manipulation of biological processes at the (sub) cellular level.
