Abstract
Bioinspired synthesis offers potential green strategies to build highly complex nanomaterials by utilizing the unique nanostructures, functions, and properties of biomolecules, in which the biomolecular recognition and self-assembly processes play important roles in tailoring the structures and functions of bioinspired materials. Further understanding of biomolecular self-assembly for inspiring the formation and assembly of nanoparticles would promote the design and fabrication of functional nanomaterials for various applications. In this review, we focus on recent advances in bioinspired synthesis and applications of hierarchical nanomaterials based on biomolecular self-assembly. We first discuss biomolecular self-assembly towards biological nanomaterials, in which the mechanisms and ways of biomolecular self-assembly as well as various self-assembled biomolecular nanostructures are demonstrated. Secondly, the bioinspired synthesis strategies including molecule-molecule interaction, molecule-material recognition, molecule-mediated nucleation and growth, and molecule-mediated reduction/oxidation are introduced and discussed. Meanwhile, typical examples and discussions on how biomolecular self-assembly inspires the formation of hierarchical hybrid nanomaterials are presented. Finally, the applications of bioinspired nanomaterials in biofuel cells, light-harvesting systems, batteries, supercapacitors, catalysis, water/air purification, and environmental monitoring are presented and discussed. We believe that this review will be very helpful for readers to understand the self-assembly of biomolecules and the biomimetic/bioinspired strategies for synthesizing hierarchical nanomaterials on the one hand, and on the other hand to design novel materials for extended applications in nanotechnology, materials science, analytical science, and biomedical engineering.

Abstract
Molecular self-assembly of peptides into ordered nanotubes is highly important for various technological applications. Very short peptide building blocks, as short as dipeptides, can form assemblies with unique mechanical, optical, piezoelectric, and semiconductive properties. Yet, the control over nanotube length in solution has remained challenging, due to the inherent sequential self-assembly mechanism. Here, in line with polymer chemistry paradigms, we applied a supramolecular polymer coassembly methodology to modulate peptide nanotube elongation. Utilizing this approach, we achieved a narrow, controllable nanotube length distribution by adjusting the molecular ratio of the diphenylalanine assembly unit and its end-capped analogue. Kinetic analysis suggested a slower coassembly organization process as compared to the self-assembly dynamics of each of the building blocks separately. This is consistent with a hierarchal arrangement of the peptide moieties within the coassemblies. Mass spectrometry analysis demonstrated the bimolecular composition of the coassembled nanostructures. Moreover, the peptide nanotubes' length distribution, as determined by electron microscopy, was shown to fit a fragmentation kinetics model. Our results reveal a simple and efficient mechanism for the control of nanotube sizes through the coassembly of peptide entities at various ratios, allowing for the desired end-product formation. This dynamic size control offers tools for molecular engineering at the nanoscale exploiting the advantages of molecular coassembly.

Abstract
The synthesis of a novel biotin-cholesterol conjugate is described together with its propensity to self-assemble and exhibit interesting optical behaviour, when examined under cross-polarized light. The avidin-biotin interaction performed with this conjugate reveals loss of birefringence suggesting that such constructs could possibly be applied for optical tracking of important biological interactions.

Abstract
Improved methodologies are provided to synthesize (1R,2S)-2-aminocyclobutane-1-carboxylic acid derivatives and their incorporation into beta-peptides of 2-8 residues bearing different N-protecting groups. The conformational analysis of these oligomers has been carried out by using experimental techniques along with theoretical calculations. This study shows that these oligomers adopt preferentially a strand-type conformation in solution induced by the formation of intra-residue six-membered hydrogen-bonded rings, affording cis-fused [4.2.0]octane structural units that confer high rigidity on these beta-peptides. Moreover, all of them are prone to self-assemble producing nano-sized fibres, as evidenced by TEM, AFM and SPFM, and, in some instances, they also form gels. These techniques and molecular modelling allowed us to suggest an aggregation model for the assembly structures in which a parallel molecular-arrangement is preferred and the conformation is similar to that observed in solution. According to this model, both hydrogen-bonding and hydrophobic interactions would account for formation of the assemblies.
