Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A porous peptide crystal, spontaneously self-assembled by simple mixing of a short peptide and a metal ion, has a precise nano-cavity via the facile synthesis. In this work, we succeeded in syntheses of a series of such porous crystals from 1.5 to 2.8 nanometer-sized cavities via chemical modifications of peptides, and revealed their molecular inclusion properties based on their cavity sizes. Furthermore, we also succeeded in creation of uniquely entangled molecules and a precise mimic of natural β-barrels via peptide sequence designs.
