  • Peptoids are synthetic polymers designed to mimic the structure and functionality of proteins. When a one-to-one blend of two oppositely charged peptoids is mixed in solution, giant, 2.7-nm-thick free-floating sheets are formed. The sheets can specifically bind a corresponding protein, and offer potential for producing functional two-dimensional nanostructures in the future.

  • Some peptoids—synthetic structural relatives of polypeptides—can assemble into two-dimensional nanometre-scale sheets; simulations and experimental measurements show that these nanosheets contain a motif unique to peptoids, namely zigzag Σ-strands, which interlock and enable the nanosheets to extend in two dimensions only.
