Abstract
Biomimetic science has attracted great interest in the fields of chemistry, biology, materials science, and energy. Biomimetic mineralization is the process of synthesizing inorganic minerals under the control of organic molecules or biomolecules under mild conditions. Peptides are the motifs that constitute proteins, and can self-assemble into various hierarchical structures and show a high affinity for inorganic substances. Therefore, peptides can be used as building blocks for the synthesis of functional biomimetic materials. With the participation of peptides, the morphology, size, and composition of mineralized materials can be controlled precisely. Peptides not only provide well-defined templates for the nucleation and growth of inorganic nanomaterials but also have the potential to confer inorganic nanomaterials with high catalytic efficiency, selectivity, and biotherapeutic functions. In this review, we systematically summarize research progress in the formation mechanism, nanostructural manipulation, and applications of peptide-templated mineralized materials. These can further inspire researchers to design structurally complex and functionalized biomimetic materials with great promising applications.

Abstract
A series of functional biomaterials with different sizes and morphologies can be constructed through self-assembly, among which amphiphilic peptide-based materials have received intense attention. One main possible reason is that the short amphiphilic peptides can facilitate the formation of versatile materials and promote their further applications in different fields. Another reason is that the simple structure of amphiphilic peptides can help establish the structure-function relationship. This review highlights the recent advances in the self-assembly of two typical peptide species, surfactant-like peptides (SLPs) and peptides amphiphiles (PAs). These peptides can self-assemble into diverse nanostructures. The formation of these different nanostructures resulted from the delicate balance of varied non-covalent interactions. This review embraced each non-covalent interaction and then listed the typical routes for regulating these non-covalent interactions, then realized the morphologies modulation of the self-assemblies. Finally, their applications in some biomedical fields, such as the stabilization of membrane proteins, templating for nanofabrication and biomineralization, acting as the antibacterial and antitumor agents, hemostasis, and synthesis of melanin have been summarized. Further advances in the self-assembly of SLPs and PAs may focus on the design of functional materials with targeted properties and exploring their improved properties.

Abstract
Porous silica particles have shown applications in various technological fields including their use as catalyst supports in heterogeneous catalysis. The mesoporous silica particles have ordered porosity, high surface area, and good chemical stability. These interesting structural or textural properties make porous silica an attractive material for use as catalyst supports in various heterogeneous catalysis reactions. The colloidal nature of the porous silica particles is highly useful in catalytic applications as it guarantees better mass transfer properties and uniform distribution of the various metal or metal oxide nanocatalysts in solution. The catalysts show high activity, low degree of metal leaching, and ease in recycling when supported or immobilized on porous silica-based materials. In this overview, we have pointed out the importance of porous silica as catalyst supports. A variety of chemical reactions catalyzed by different catalysts loaded or embedded in porous silica supports are studied. The latest reports from the literature about the use of porous silica-based materials as catalyst supports are listed and analyzed. The new and continued trends are discussed with examples.
