Self-Assembling Peptide Nanotubes

Hartgerink, Jeffrey D., Granja, Juan R., Milligan, Ronald A., Ghadiri, M. Reza·1996·Journal of the American Chemical Society

Abstract

The general design criteria and synthesis of four new peptide-based solid-state tubular array structures are described. Peptide nanotubes, which are extended tubular β-sheet-like structures, are constructed by the self-assembly of flat, ring-shaped peptide subunits made up of alternating d - and l -amino acid residues. Peptide self-assembly is directed by the formation of an extensive network of intersubunit hydrogen bonds. In the crystal structures, nanotubes are stabilized by intertubular hydrophobic packing interactions. Peptide nanotubes exhibit good mechanical and thermal stabilities in water and are stable for long periods of times in most common organic solvents including DMF and DMSO. The remarkable stability of peptide nanotubes can be attributed to the highly cooperative nature of the noncovalent interactions throughout the crystal lattice. Nanotube structures were characterized by cryoelectron microscopy, electron diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and crystal structure modeling. This study also serves to exemplify the predictive structural aspects of the peptide self-assembly process.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
