India, Oct. 12 -- The Government of India has issued a release:

Researchers have demonstrated how a remarkably small change in molecular structure can profoundly influence the way peptide-based molecules organize and function.

Such an approach could support the development of adaptable peptide-based nanomaterials for applications in biosensing, bioimaging, smart photonic materials, optoelectronics, and molecular electronics.

Peptides, the building blocks of proteins, can spontaneously organize into ordered nanostructures through supramolecular self-assembly. However, controlling this process to obtain desired structures and properties remains a major challenge.

A study by the Centre for Nano and Soft Matter Sciences (CeNS), Bengaluru, a...
