BIOMIMICRY. “In addition, the close similarity between the structural cascades from primary to quaternary structures can explain the “bio-Iike” appearance and morphologies of many crystals formed by a nonclassical crystallization pathway. The formation of biopolymer quaternary structures from several different molecules (e.g., the insulin tertiary structure is formed from chain A and B) implies that it should also be possible to form mesocrystals that consist of chemically different nanocrystals.”
