Polypeptides obtained from the ring-opening polymerization of N-carboxyanhydrides, as the
synthetic analogues of natural proteins, have drawn broad interests during the recent three …

Polypeptides derived from amino acids bridge the synthetic polymers and proteins, and they
have attracted continuous attention on their properties and functionalities. In the past …

The biological significance of self-assembled protein filament networks and their unique
mechanical properties have sparked interest in the development of synthetic filament …

The assembly of peptides is generally mediated by liquid–liquid phase separation, which
enables control over assembly kinetics, final structure, and functions of peptide-based …

Living growth of micelles on the substrate is an intriguing phenomenon; however, little is
known about its growth kinetics, especially from a theoretical viewpoint. Here, we examine …

Nucleation is a critical step that determines the assembly pathway and the structure and
