Researchers at the Department of Chemical Sciences of University of Padova have discovered a new way in which small molecules spontaneously organize themselves into large structures.

A characteristic feature of all living organisms is that energy consumption is required to stay alive. In a publication that recently appeared in Nature Chemistry, the research group led by prof. Leonard Prins, has now described a synthetic assembly that also requires energy to maintain an organized state. Strikingly, the system relies on the same energy source, a molecule called ATP, which is used by Nature.
