ABSTRACT The chirality of biopolymers remains one of the mysteries of Life. For such objects, the phenomenon of supramolecular chirality (SMC) is vital. Enantiomers can be recognized by the adsorption on surfaces with SMC. However, the mechanisms of such chiral recognition are still unknown. In this...
