Freeman Lab Cover Art Published in Bioconjugate Chemistry

This month’s issue of Bioconjugate Chemistry has been published, and features cover art by Freeman Lab alumnus Griffin Miller. The artwork (above) depicts DNA-containing peptides organizing into twisted bundles of fibers, which mimic biological assemblies. This cover accompanies Dr. Ronit Freeman’s paper, also published in this July issue, titled “Encoding Reversible Hierarchical Structures with Supramolecular Peptide-DNA Materials.”  More information on this… Continue reading Freeman Lab Cover Art Published in Bioconjugate Chemistry

This graphic depicts peptides assembling into fibers (gray). The attached DNA (yellow and green helices) on the peptides helps join the fibers together to form bundled structures.

Living things are built by soft materials with intricate structures that can reconfigure in response to changes in their surroundings to carry out important, complex functions. These biological materials, like muscles, bones, or even the “skeleton” inside cells, are made of small units or molecules that organize into larger architectures of various shapes and sizes.… Continue reading Featured: Bioconjugate Chemistry
