Molecular self-assembly: Best of both worlds   pp295 - 296
Rein V. Ulijn
doi:10.1038/nnano.2015.59
The four-letter molecular code of DNA and the twenty-letter expression language of peptides have inspired the development of two thriving, but distinct, branches of nanotechnology; a technique that combines the two approaches could lead to robust, scalable materials with unique optoelectronic properties.
