Transition of Nano-Architectures Through Self-Assembly of Lipidated β3-Tripeptide Foldamers

Transition of Nano-Architectures Through Self-Assembly of Lipidated β3-Tripeptide Foldamers

β3-peptides consisting exclusively of β3-amino acids adopt a variety of non-natural helical structures and can self-assemble into well-defined hierarchical structures by axial head-to-tail self-assembly resulting in fibrous materials of varying sizes and shapes. To allow control of fiber morphology,...
