説明

<jats:p>Elegant self‐assembling complexes by the combination of proteins/peptides with functional chromophores are decisively responsible for highly efficient light‐harvesting and energy transfer in natural photosynthetic systems. Mimicking natural light‐harvesting complexes through synthetic peptides is attractive due to their advantanges of programmable primary structure, tunable self‐assembly architecture and easy availability in comparison to naturally occuring proteins. Here, an overview of recent progresses in the area of biomimetic light‐harvesting nanoarchitectonics based on peptide‐modulated self‐assembly of chromophores is provided. Adjusting the organization of chromophores, either by creating peptide–chromophore conjugates or by the non‐covalent assembly of peptides and chromophores are highlighted. The light‐harvesting properties, especially the energy transfer of the biomimetic complexes are critically discussed. The applications of such complexes in the mineralization of inorganic nanoparticles, generation of molecular hydrogen and oxygen, and photosynthesis of bioactive molecules are also included.</jats:p>
