Cyclization and Self-Assembly of Cyclic Peptides

, 2021
Cyclic peptides are a fascinating class of molecules that can be programmed to fold or self-assemble into diverse mono- and multidimensional structures with potential applications in biomedicine, nanoelectronics, or catalysis. Herein we describe on-resin procedures to carry out head-to-tail peptide cyclization based on orthogonal protected linear ...

Impact of C-Terminal Chemistry on Self-Assembled Morphology of Guanosine Containing Nucleopeptides

Molecules, 2020
Herein, we report the design and characterization of guanosine-containing self-assembling nucleopeptides that form nanosheets and nanofibers. Through spectroscopy and microscopy analysis, we propose that the peptide component of the nucleopeptide drives ...
