Solvent effects on kinetic mechanisms of self-assembly by peptide amphiphiles via molecular dynamics simulations

Peptide amphiphiles are known to form a variety of distinctive self-assembled nanostructures (including cylindrical nanofibers in hydrogels) dependent upon the solvent conditions. Using a novel coarse-grained model, large-scale molecular dynamics simulations are performed on a system of 800 peptide...
