In March, 2024, Huddy ''et al.'' in the team of David Baker (subsequently a [[Nobel_Prizes_for_3D_Molecular_Structure#2020-2029|Nobel Laureate]]) published a wide range of synthetic protein nanostructures self-assembled from standardized, engineered alpha-helical protein modules<ref name="huddy2024">PMID: 38480887</ref>. The extensively documented report, in ''Nature'', has 32 authors<ref name="huddy2024" />. | In March, 2024, Huddy ''et al.'' in the team of David Baker (subsequently a [[Nobel_Prizes_for_3D_Molecular_Structure#2020-2029|Nobel Laureate]]) published a wide range of synthetic protein nanostructures self-assembled from standardized, engineered alpha-helical protein modules<ref name="huddy2024">PMID: 38480887</ref>.

The breakthrough here is that instead of designing a single "one-off" desired nanostructure, the Baker group has first designed a series of regular building blocks that can be assembled into diverse nanostructures using straightforward geometric principles. These now enable "construction of protein nanomaterials according to ‘back of an envelope’ architectural blueprints"<ref name="huddy2024" />. | The breakthrough here is that instead of designing a single "one-off" desired nanostructure, the Baker group has first designed a series of regular building blocks that can be assembled into diverse nanostructures using straightforward geometric principles.
