Control of nano-micrometric twist and helical ribbon formation with gemini–oligoalanine via interpeptidic β-sheet structure formation

Abstract

Confinement of anionic oligo-alanine peptides at the surfaces of cationic membrane by ionic interaction can induce their secondary structure formation; such organized peptides reciprocally transfer their chirality to membranes with non-chiral amphiphiles and their supramolecular chiral structures can be tuned both by peptides and amphiphiles structures.
