Abstract

Biologically engineered nanomaterials give rise to unique and intriguing properties, which are not available in nature. The full-realization of such has been hindered by the lack of robust and straightforward techniques to produce the required architectures. Here a new bottomup bionano-engineering route is developed to construct nanomaterials using a guided assembly of collagen building blocks, es…
