Abstract
Synthetic glycopeptides capable of self-assembly in aqueous environments form a range of supramolecular nanostructures, such as nanoparticles and nanofibers, owing to their amphiphilic nature and the diverse structures of the saccharides introduced. These glycopeptide-based supramolecular materials are promising for immunotherapy applications because of their biocompatibility and multivalent saccharide display, which enhances lectin-saccharide interactions. This review highlights recent advances in the molecular design of synthetic glycopeptide-based supramolecular materials and their use as immunomodulatory agents.

Abstract
Living cells are complex, nonequilibrium supramolecular systems capable of independently and/or cooperatively integrating multiple bio-supramolecules to execute intricate physiological functions that cannot be accomplished by individual biomolecules. These biological design strategies offer valuable insights for the development of synthetic supramolecular systems with spatially controlled hierarchical structures, which, importantly, exhibit cell-like responses and functions. The next grand challenge in supramolecular chemistry is to control the organization of multiple types of supramolecules in a single system, thus integrating the functions of these supramolecules in an orthogonal and/or cooperative manner. In this perspective, the recent progress in constructing multicomponent supramolecular soft materials through the hybridization of supramolecules, such as self-assembled nanofibers/gels and coacervates, with other functional molecules, including polymer gels and enzymes is highlighted. Moreover, results show that these materials exhibit bioinspired responses to stimuli, such as bidirectional rheological responses of supramolecular double-network hydrogels, temporal stimulus pattern-dependent responses of synthetic coacervates, and 3D hydrogel patterning in response to reaction-diffusion processes are presented. Autonomous active soft materials with cell-like responses and spatially controlled structures hold promise for diverse applications, including soft robotics with directional motion, point-of-care disease diagnosis, and tissue regeneration.

Abstract
The artificial construction of multicomponent supramolecular materials comprising plural supramolecular architectures that are assembled orthogonally from their constituent molecules has attracted growing attention. Here, we describe the design and development of multicomponent supramolecular materials by combining peptide-based self-assembled fibrous nanostructures with globular DNA nanoflowers constructed by the rolling circle amplification reaction. The orthogonally constructed architectures were dissected by fluorescence imaging using the selective fluorescence staining procedures adapted to this study. The present, unique hybrid materials developed by taking advantage of each supramolecular architecture based on their peptide and DNA functions may offer distinct opportunities to explore their bioapplications as a soft matrix.

Abstract
Here, we describe the design and synthesis of a new reduction-cleavable spacer (RCS) based on a nitrobenzene scaffold for constructing reduction-responsive oligonucleotides according to standard phosphoramidite chemistry. In addition, we demonstrate that the introduction of the RCS in the middle of an oligonucleotide (30 nt) enables the construction of a self-assembled microsphere capable of exhibiting a reduction-responsive disassembly.

Abstract
The use of biological molecules with programmable self-assembly properties is an attractive route to functional nanomaterials. Proteins and peptides have been used extensively for these systems due to their biological relevance and large number of supramolecular motifs, but it is still difficult to build highly anisotropic and programmable nanostructures due to their high complexity. Oligonucleotides, by contrast, have the advantage of programmability and reliable assembly, but lack biological and chemical diversity. In this review, we discuss systems that merge protein or peptide self-assembly with the addressability of DNA. We outline the various self-assembly motifs used, the chemistry for linking polypeptides with DNA, and the resulting nanostructures that can be formed by the interplay of these two molecules. Finally, we close by suggesting some interesting future directions in hybrid polypeptide-DNA nanomaterials, and potential applications for these exciting hybrids.

Abstract
Inspired by natural motors, synthetic motors powered by light have emerged as promising platforms for constructing artificial micro/nanorobots. As a concept of light-driven motors, we have previously reported propulsion of giant liposomes driven by light-induced peptide nanofiber growth on the surface, inspired by natural pathogens using external actin polymerization for their propulsion. However, their movement was nondirectional. Here, we used DNA microspheres (also known as nucleospheres) comprising DNA three-way junctions with self-complementary sticky ends as vehicles for directional propulsion by light-induced peptide nanofiber growth. By introducing a peptide-DNA conjugate connected by a photocleavage unit to the surface of nucleospheres, ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation induced the asymmetric peptide nanofiber growth on the surface. Nucleospheres exhibited directional movement away from the light source, showing negative phototaxis. This directional movement was maintained even after the light irradiation was ceased. Our phototactic system helps to better understand the mechanism of natural motors and construct bioinspired motors with controlled movement.

Abstract
Supramolecular architectures that are built artificially from biomolecules, such as nucleic acids or peptides, with structural hierarchical orders ranging from the molecular to nano-scales have attracted increased attention in molecular science research fields. The engineering of nanostructures with such biomolecule-based supramolecular architectures could offer an opportunity for the development of biocompatible supramolecular (nano)materials. In this review, we highlighted a variety of supramolecular architectures that were assembled from both nucleic acids and peptides through the non-covalent interactions between them or the covalently conjugated molecular hybrids between them.

Abstract
Self-sorting double network hydrogels comprising orthogonal supramolecular nanofibers have attracted attention as artificially-regulated multi-component systems. Regulation of network patterns of self-sorted nanofibers is considered as a key for potential applications such as optoelectronics, but still challenging owing to a lack of useful methods to prepare and analyze the network patterns. Herein, we describe the selective construction of two distinct self-sorting network patterns, interpenetrated and parallel, by controlling the kinetics of seed formation with dynamic covalent oxime chemistry. Confocal imaging reveals the interpenetrated self-sorting network was formed upon addition of O-benzylhydroxylamine to a benzaldehyde-tethered peptide-type hydrogelator in the presence of lipid-type nanofibers. We also succeed in construction of a parallel self-sorting network through deceleration of seed formation using a slow oxime exchange reaction. Through careful observation, the formation of peptide-type seeds and nanofibers is shown to predominantly occur on the surface of the lipid-type nanofibers via highly dynamic and thermally-fluctuated processes. Regulation of self-sorted nanofiber network patterns in double network hydrogels comprising supramolecular nanofibers is considered as key for potential applications. Here, the authors describe a selective construction of two distinct self-sorting network patterns, by controlling the kinetics of seed formation with dynamic covalent chemistry.

Abstract
Multicomponent supramolecular hydrogels are promising scaffolds for applications in biosensors and controlled drug release due to their designer stimulus responsiveness. To achieve rational construction of multicomponent supramolecular hydrogel systems, their in-depth structural analysis is essential but still challenging. Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) has emerged as a powerful tool for structural analysis of multicomponent supramolecular hydrogels. CLSM imaging enables real-time observation of the hydrogels without the need of drying and/or freezing to elucidate their static and dynamic properties. Through multiple, selective fluorescent staining of materials of interest, multiple domains formed in supramolecular hydrogels (e. g. inorganic materials and self-sorting nanofibers) can also be visualized. CLSM and the related microscopic techniques will be indispensable to investigate complex life-inspired supramolecular chemical systems.
