Abstract
Anionic, water-soluble calixarenes act as protein receptors and mediators of assembly, towards protein crystal engineering. Reproducible structural units, known as supramolecular synthons, are identified across protein – calixarene crystal structures and applied to direct new frameworks. Controlled calixarene binding is applicable in disordered protein capture and molecular tectonics.
