A New Approach to Chemical Atom Manipulation: Programmable Metal Unit Arrangement on Peptides to Create Composition- and Configration-Controlled Heterometallic Hybrid Materials

(Associate Professor, Kyoto University, Institute for Chemical Research)
Hikaru Takaya
The focus of this project is to research the following challenges: i) Development of fundamental method to create composition- and configuration-controlled heterometallic hybrid molecules using metallted-amino acids and peptides as metal units. Programmable metal unit arrangement through chemical synthesis and self-assembly process is employed in complementary to control the composition, 1D/2D array, and 3D configuration of metals on peptides. ii) Screening the function of heterometallic hybrid molecules. Application to supramolecular gelators, molecular electronic devices, photochemical devices, advanced catalysts, artificial enzymes, and MRI contrast agents will be explored with a diverse library of metallated-amino acids and peptides. image
