Self-assembly of Peptide nanotubes in an organic solvent

The self-assembly of a modified fragment of the amyloid beta peptide, based on sequence Abeta(16-20), KLVFF, extended to give AAKLVFF is studied in methanol. Self-assembly into peptide nanotubes is observed, as confirmed by electron microscopy and small-angle X-ray scattering. The secondary structur...

520 |a The self-assembly of a modified fragment of the amyloid beta peptide, based on sequence Abeta(16-20), KLVFF, extended to give AAKLVFF is studied in methanol. Self-assembly into peptide nanotubes is observed, as confirmed by electron microscopy and small-angle X-ray scattering. The secondary structure of the peptide is probed by FTIR and circular dichroism, and UV/visible spectroscopy provides evidence for the important role of aromatic interactions between phenylalanine residues in driving beta-sheet self-assembly. The beta-sheets wrap helically to form the nanotubes, the nanotube wall comprising four wrapped beta-sheets. At higher concentration, the peptide nanotubes form a nematic phase that exhibits spontaneous flow alignment as observed by small-angle neutron scattering
