Nanopropulsion by biocatalytic self-assembly

In nature, a number of organisms and organelles are capable of self-propulsion at the micro- and nano-scale. Inspired by biological motors, this investigation aims to induce self-propulsion of an enzyme, by the biocatalytic self-assembly of aromatic peptide amphiphile molecules into supramolecular f...
