Grant Program:
Discovery Projects
Grant Activity:
Atomic scale precision engineering of cell-material interfaces
Purpose:
This project aims to determine the molecular structure of the interface between novel peptide self-assemblies and cell membranes through x-ray diffraction and molecular simulation. The project will generate knowledge to enable atomic scale engineering of peptide nanomaterials, and exploitation of these materials to modulate cell responses. Expected outcomes include designed peptide nanostructures with specific chemical and physical cues to promote sustainable growth of desired cells, whilst inhibiting undesirable responses. These outcomes should provide benefits in terms of a practical toolkit for tailoring structure and function of peptide nanostructures and open up a new era in molecular design of smart biomaterials. This easily scalable, new materials platform will contribute to emerging high-value manufacturing industries in Australia.
