Cyclic peptide facial amphiphile preprogrammed to self-assemble into bioactive peptide capsules.
Self-assembled peptide nanostructures have shown great potential as promising biomaterials. Peptides have the advantage of being intrinsically biocompatible materials. Peptides, as self-assembling building blocks, have mostly been designed to have head/tail molecular configuration. Since there is a great deal of interest in the precise control of a self-assembly process, novel building blocks s...

متن کاملMorphological characterization of self-assembled peptide nucleic acid amphiphiles.
Peptide nucleic acid amphiphiles (PNAA) are a promising set of materials for sequence-specific separation of nucleic acids from complex mixtures. To implement PNAA in micellar separations, the morphology and size of PNAA micelles in the presence and absence of a sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) cosurfactant have been studied by small-angle X-ray scattering and dynamic light scattering. We find that...
متن کاملThe internal structure of self-assembled peptide amphiphiles nanofibers{
The self-assembly of peptide amphiphiles (PAs) into nanofibers and their bioactivity as well as physical properties have been investigated by our laboratory over the past few years. We report here on the use of transmission infrared spectroscopy (IR) and polarization modulation-infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (PM-IRRAS) to characterize the internal structure of the nanofibers. Depos...
متن کاملSelf-assembly of model DNA-binding peptide amphiphiles.
Peptide amphiphiles combine the specific functionality of proteins with the engineering convenience of synthetic amphiphiles. These molecules covalently link a peptide headgroup, typically from an active fragment of a larger protein, to a hydrophobic alkyl tail. Our research is aimed at forming and characterizing covalently stabilized, self-assembled, peptide-amphiphile aggregates that can be u...
