This study investigates how interhelical interactions guide the assembly of collagen mimetic peptides into D-periodic fibrils, nanotubes, and nanosheets.

This paper demonstrates that Dopa crosslinking with lysine covalently stabilizes collagen mimetic peptides and their assemblies, enhancing thermal stability for biomedical applications.

The paper designs collagenous assemblies using a peptide self-assembly system and solves their structure with cryo-EM, revealing a non-twisting triple helix conformation that differs from the canonical right-handed triple helix.

This study explores the sequence-structure relationship in collagen-like peptides, designing new peptides that form diverse quaternary structures beyond triple helices.
