Oligomerization enhances the binding affinity of a silver biomineralization peptide and catalyzes nanostructure formation
Abstract Binding affinity and specificity are crucial factors that influence nanostructure control by biomineralization peptides. In this paper, we analysed the role that the oligomeric state of a silver biomineralization peptide plays in regulating the morphology of silver nanostructure formation....
