Amyloid fibrils from organic solutions of an amphiphilic dipeptide
(2019-01-01)
Article
Open AccessNon-hydrated organic solutions of a diphenylalanine amphiphile blocked at the C-terminus with a fluorenylmethyl ester and stabilized at the N-terminus with a trifluoroacetate have been used to prepare amyloid fibrils. The ... -
Amyloid-like fibrils from a diphenylalanine capped with an aromatic fluorenyl
(2018-11-19)
Article
Open AccessThe self-assembly behavior of a diphenylalanine amphiphile blocked at the C-terminus with a 9-fluorenylmethyl ester and stabilized at the N-terminus with a trifluoroacetate (TFA) anion, TFA·FF-OFm, has been examined. At ... -
Diversity and hierarchy in supramolecular assemblies of triphenylalanine: from laminated helical ribbons to toroids
(2017-04-04)
Article
Open AccessMicrostructures from small phenylalanine-based peptides have attracted great attention lately because these compounds are considered to be a new class of tunable materials. In spite of the extensive studies on uncapped ... -
Effect of solvent choice on the self-assembly properties of a diphenylalanine amphiphile stabilized by an ion pair
(2017-07-19)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyA diphenylalanine (FF) amphiphile blocked at the C terminus with a benzyl ester (OBzl) and stabilized at the N terminus with a trifluoroacetate (TFA) anion was synthetized and characterized. Aggregation of peptide molecules ... -
Hierarchical self-assembly of di-, tri- and tetraphenylalanine peptides capped with two fluorenyl functionalities: from polymorphs to dendrites
(2016)
Article
Open AccessHomopeptides with 2, 3 and 4 phenylalanine (Phe) residues and capped with fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl and fluorenylmethyl esters at the N-terminus and C-terminus, respectively, have been synthesized to examine their self-assembly ... -
Hybrid polypeptide/polylactide copolymers with short phenylalanine blocks
(2018-07-29)
Article
Open AccessHybrid copolymers constituted by short l-phenylalanine (Phe) blocks (i.e., Phen with n ranging from 2 to 25) and l-lactide blocks of different length are synthesized and characterized. The diblock structure is obtained by ... -
Self-assembly of diphenylalanine with preclick components as capping groups
(2017-01-01)
Article
Open AccessAlkyne and azide, which are commonly used in the cycloaddition reaction recognized as “click chemistry”, have been used as capping groups of two engineered diphenylalanine (FF) derivatives due to their ability to form weak ... -
Self-assembly of phenylalanine derivatives
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2017-12-18)
Doctoral thesis
Open AccessSince the pioneering work of Reches and Gazit in 2003, in which the formation of diphenylalanine (FF) nanotubes in aqueous solution was discovered, significant efforts have been made to develop a new generation of biomaterials ... -
Self-assembly of tetraphenylalanine peptides
(2015-11-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThree different tetraphenylalanine (FFFF) based peptides that differ at the N- and C-termini have been synthesized by using standard procedures to study their ability to form different nanoassemblies under a variety of ... -
Surface mediated hierarchical assemblies of highly hydrophobic phenylalanine-based peptides
(2017-01-01)
Article
Open AccessWe report the noticeable control exerted by the surface in the self-assembly of a highly hydrophobic triphenylalanine peptide with fluorenyl functionalities blocking the two ends. The remarkable differences observed among ...
