Self-assembly of diphenylalanine peptides into microtubes with “turn on” fluorescence using an aggregation-induced emission molecule

Abstract

The self-assembly of diphenylalanine peptides (L-Phe–L-Phe) into microtubes with “turn on” bright yellow green fluorescence was described, which was achieved using an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) molecule of 9,10-bis[4-(3-sulfonatopropoxyl)-styryl] anthracene (BSPSA) sodium.
