Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how molecular ordering and interface geometry influence the shape and organization of two-dimensional interfacial assemblies, specifically in water droplets with peptide assemblies.
  • Researchers found that certain peptides can transform a rounded water droplet into a flat surface by forming a two-dimensional crystal structure, driven by the peptides' folding and interactions.
  • The sequence of these peptides, particularly the redox-active tyrosine units in the YYACAYY film, can enhance chemical reactions and may be used to create a flexible, self-repairing flat film.

Hydrogels composed of collagen and hyaluronic acid are types of crosslinked water-swellable polymers and possess vast potential for applications in the medical industry. Collagen (Co) is the major structural protein of connective tissues such as skin, tendon and cartilage. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a non-immunogenic, non-adhesive glycosaminoglycan that has a high water absorption property and plays significant roles in several cellular processes.
