Peptide-polymer hybrid nanotubes
Abstract
Disguise tactics: Peptide-polymer hybrid nanotubes are constructed in which self-assembled cyclic peptides govern the structure, and a synthetic polymer coating determines the surface chemistry. Formation of the latter is initiated in situ from preorganized peptide building blocks. The picture shows an AFM image of nanotubes on a silicon wafer.
