Breakthrough in the precision engineering of four-stranded beta-sheets

A newly developed approach can precisely produce four-stranded beta-sheets through metal-peptide coordination, report researchers. Their innovative methodology overcomes long-standing challenges in controlled -sheet formation, including fibril aggregation and uncontrolled isomeric variation in the final product. This breakthrough could advance the study and application of -sheets in biotechnology and nanotechnology. https://ift.tt/xJcKDeE
