Proteins and peptide fragments play a crucial role in self-assembly for nanostructures, with intrinsically disordered proteins and protein regions showing significant biological activity. Experimental techniques and computational modeling procedures are used for characterization, leading to a wide variety of nanostructures and promising performance in biotechnological applications. Exciting possibilities for IDPs and IDRs in nanotechnology with relevant biological applications are demonstrated.
Proteins and peptide fragments are highly relevant building blocks in self-assembly for nanostructures with plenty of applications. Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) and protein regions (IDRs) are defined by the absence of a well-defined secondary structure, yet IDPs/IDRs show a significant biological activity. Experimental techniques and computational modelling procedures for the characterization of IDPs/IDRs are discussed. Directed self-assembly of IDPs/IDRs allows reaching a large variety of nanostructures. Hybrid materials based on the derivatives of IDPs/IDRs show a promising performance as alternative biocides and nanodrugs. Cell mimicking, in vivo compartmentalization, and bone regeneration are demonstrated for IDPs/IDRs in biotechnological applications. The exciting possibilities of IDPs/IDRs in nanotechnology with relevant biological applications are shown.
