2D Assemblies Based on a Tetraphenylethylene D,L‐Cyclic Peptide Scaffold
A new scaffold based on four nanotube‐forming cyclic peptide units attached to a tetraphenylethene (TPE) core with pH‐dependent self‐assembly that provides light‐emitting 2D nanosheets with controlled thickness is described. Abstract Two dimensional (2D) materials and aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) fluorophores have recently gained attention due to

The antimicrobial lysine-peptoid hybrid LP5 inhibits DNA replication and induces the SOS response in Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The increase in antibiotic resistant bacteria has led to renewed interest in development of alternative antimicrobial compounds such as antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), either naturally-occurring or synthetically-derived.
