Light-Triggered Disassembly of Peptide Nanostructures. [PDF]

Chembiochem
Two amphiphilic peptides incorporating anthracene as a light‐responsive moiety that assemble into 2D‐sheets or ribbons are designed. These nanostructures are disassembled upon irradiation with 365 nm light by bimolecular [4 + 4] cycloaddition. The reaction kinetics are depended on peptide preorganization, linking structure to reactivity.

Photoswitchable Peptides as Molecular Tools to Encode Structural Order and Disorder in Intracellular Assemblies. [PDF]

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl
We present a photoswitchable peptide conjugate which exhibits isomerism‐dependent self‐assembly: the planar trans‐isomer assembles into well‐ordered nanofibers while the non‐planar cis‐isomer yields disordered aggregates. Our study offers a direct visualization on the effects of structure formation inside living cells.
