Peptide-DNA conjugates as building blocks for de novo design of hybrid nanostructures
Integrating two nanoworld self-assembly principles, DNA and peptides/proteins, into a single structural modality is an emerging paradigm for advanced chemical and nanotechnological applications. In this tutorial review, Assoc. Prof. Chenguang Lou at FKF, SDU, together with Dr. Mathias Bogetoft Danielsen and Prof. Hanbin Mao from USA, surveyed the seminal works and milestone advances that have been made within the last decade. With the 10-year excellent research work from Lou and his co-workers, we are proud that FKF, SDU also made a significant contribution to this exciting new research field. Lou’s research is supported by Lundbeck Foundation.
