Self-assembling amphiphilic peptides†
The self-assembly of several classes of amphiphilic peptides is reviewed, and selected applications are discussed. We discuss recent work on the self-assembly of lipopeptides, surfactant-like peptides and amyloid peptides derived from the amyloid-β peptide. The influence of environmental variables such as pH and temperature on aggregate nanostructure is discussed. Enzyme-induced remodelling due...
متن کاملMolecular designer self-assembling peptides.
Chemistry has generally been associated with inorganic and organic syntheses, metal-organic composites, coordinate metal chemistry, catalyses, block copolymer, coating, thin film, industrial surfactants and small-molecule drug development. That is about to change. Chemistry will also expand to the discovery and fabrication of biological and molecular materials with diverse structures, functiona...
متن کاملSearch for Fibrous Aggregates Potentially Useful in Regenerative Medicine Formed under Physiological Conditions by Self-Assembling Short Peptides Containing Two Identical Aromatic Amino Acid Residues.
This study investigates the propensity of short peptides to self-organize and the influence of aggregates on cell cultures. The dipeptides were derived from both enantiomers of identical aromatic amino acids and tripeptides were prepared from two identical aromatic amino acids with one cysteine or methionine residue in the C-terminal, N-terminal, or central position. The formation or absence of...
متن کاملStimuli-responsive self-assembling peptides made from antibacterial peptides.
How to use bioactive peptide sequences as fundamental building blocks to make hydrogel materials which are stimuli-responsive? In this article, we provide a novel designed peptide comprising two antibacterial peptide sequences (KIGAKI)3-NH2 and a central tetrapeptide linker. Results show that balancing the forces of the electrostatic repulsion of the charged lysine residues against the hydropho...
متن کاملBlueprint for Self-replicating and Self-assembling 3D Printers
In the 1940s Stanislaw Ulam and John Von Neumann came up with the idea of cellular Automata (CAs), which Von Neumann later used to develop a universal constructor (Neumann, 1966). The universal constructor is a pattern implemented in a CA that consists of a two parts: The universal constructor and a tape. The universal constructor reads from the tape and produces what is encoded. A universal co...
