主 题:synthetic peptide photocrosslinking de novo design encapsulable nanosphere imaging nanoprobe dityrosine
摘 要:Combining the noncovalent and covalent interactions,a series of peptide amphiphiles were designed de novo and synthesized to architect functional assemblies by means of *** strand of peptide sequence was structurally capped with photoactive tyrosine-tyrosine(YY)motifs at both termini,and the spacing was filled by alternating of hydrophilic D(L-aspartate)and hydrophobic X(ε-aminocaproic acid)*** visible-light irradiation,these de novo designed peptides underwent rapid photocrosslinking within merely 10 ***,the modulation of alternating D-X pairs in occupying spacer would adjust molecular amphiphilicity,regulate charge distribution,and control particle size and loading capacity of peptide nanospheres(PNS)in aqueous *** entirely peptide-based matrix,this PNS system could host cationic indicators of fluorescent rhodamine and magnetic GdIII for exemplar near infrared(NIR)fluorescence and magnetic resonance(MR)imaging,which paves a pathway to biomaterial and biomedical applications using de novo designed peptides.
