Alternating : A cofactor dyad consisting of a heme group (red in picture) and a bis(biotin) unit (blue) was synthesized and shown to specifically bind to both apomyoglobin and streptavidin. In the presence of the dyad, the 1:1 association of a disulfide‐bridged myoglobin dimer (green) with streptavidin (gray) afforded a submicrometer‐sized fibrous alternating copolymer.
