Lanreotide, a synthetic, therapeutic octapeptide analog of somatostatin, self-assembles in
water into perfectly hollow and monodisperse (24-nm wide) nanotubes. Lanreotide is a …

Nanofabrication by molecular self-assembly involves the design of molecules and self-
assembly strategies so that shape and chemical complementarities drive the units to …

We investigated the spectroscopic properties of the aromatic residues in a set of
octapeptides with various self‐assembly properties. These octapeptides are based on …

Self-assembled nanoarchitectures based on biological molecules are attractive because of
the simplicity and versatility of the building blocks. However, size control is still a challenge …

Peptide nanotubes are promising bio-inspired self-assemblies with a wide range of
envisioned applications. The present review addresses the recent advances in their …

The controlled self-assembly of complex molecules into well defined hierarchical structures
is a promising route for fabricating nanostructures. These nanoscale structures can be …

Self‐assembling peptide nanotubes (such as the cyclic peptide for which the calculated
crystal structure is shown on the right) display a wide range of structural and functional …

Lanreotide is a synthetic octapeptide used in the therapy against acromegaly. When mixed
with pure water at 10%(w/w), Lanreotide (acetate salt) forms liquid crystalline and …

Terminally protected acyclic tripeptides Boc-Tyr (1)-Val (2)-Tyr (3)-OMe 1 and Boc-Tyr (1)-Ile
