Fmoc-diphenylalanine self-assembly mechanism induces apparent pKa shifts

We report the effect of pH on the self-assembly process of Fmoc-diphenylalanine (Fmoc-FF) into fibrils consisting of antiparallel beta-sheets, and show that it results in two apparent pKa shifts of approximately 6.4 and approximately 2.2 pH units above the theoretical pKa (3.5). Using Fourier transf...
