Motivated by elegant biological helical structures, considerable effort has been devoted to developing artificial helical ...

The vast majority of bonds formed by these side chains are noncovalent. In fact, cysteines are the only amino acids capable of forming covalent bonds, which they do with their particular side chains.

Helical structures are ubiquitous across biology, from the double-stranded helix of DNA to how heart muscle cells spiral in a band. Inspired by this twisty ladder, researchers from Hiroshima ...

Researchers at Hiroshima University’s Graduate School of Advanced Science and Engineering have created an artificial polymer that self-organizes into a controllable helix, according to a study ...
