DESCRIPTION:Supramolecular assemblies in nature are the embodiment of creat
 ing function through structure formation. In recent years\, these complex 
 natural architectures have inspired the development of materials for the i
 n-situ formation of synthetic nanostructures inside living cells. Syntheti
 c intracellular assemblies can be used to modulate cellular processes\, ho
 wever\, their effects on metabolism and three-dimensional cell networks ha
 ve not been widely explored. Herein\, we present bioresponsive kinked pept
 ides that can undergo a multistep transformation into self-assembling line
 ar peptides in living cells. The intracellular peptide assembly causes met
 abolic disruption and rapid cell death. This work showcases the potential 
 use of bioresponsive nanomaterials as supramolecular anticancer drugs via 
 the construction of synthetic architectures inside living cells.\nSpeaker:
