Investigating protein folding by the de novo design of an α-helix oligomer
<p>Proteins are composed of a unique sequence of amino acids, whose order guides a protein to adopt its particular fold and perform a specific function. It has been shown that a protein's 3-dimensional structure is embedded within its primary sequence. The problem that remains elusive to …

Elastin-like polypeptide (ELP) tags for self-assembly and high-throughput processing of functional protein materials
… and catalytic capabilities of globular proteins makes these biomolecules promising candidates in a broad array of applications, including industrial production of commodity chemicals, point-of-care diagnostics, and therapeutics. Self-assembly of globular protein-polymer bioconjugates …

Explorations into protein structure with the knob-socket model
<p>Protein sequences contain the information in order for a protein to fold to a unique compact, three-dimensional native structure. The forces that drive protein structures to form compact folds are largely dominated by burial of hydrophobic amino acids, which results in non-specific packing of …
