Self-Assembly of Giant Peptide Nanobelts
Open accessAbstract
Many alkylated peptide amphiphiles have been reported to self-assemble into cylindrical nanofibers with diameters on the order of a few nanometers and micrometer scale lengths; these nanostructures can be highly bioactive and are of great interest in many biomedical applications. We have discovered the sequences for these molecules that can eliminate all curvature from the nanostructures they form in water and generate completely flat nanobelts with giant dimensions relative to previously reported systems. The nanobelts have fairly monodisperse widths on the order of 150 nm and lengths of up to 0.1 mm. The sequences have an alternating sequence with hydrophobic and hydrophilic side chains and variations in monomer concentration generate a "broom" morphology with twisted ribbons that reveals the mechanism through which giant nanobelts form. Interestingly, a variation in pH generates reversibly periodic 2 nm grooves on the surfaces of the nanobelts. With proper functionalization, these nanostructures offer a novel architecture to present epitopes to cells for therapeutic applications.

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.
