Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this work, a new artificial peptide-based nanomaterial was created by the strategy of coordination-driven self-assembly with concomitant folding and assembly processes. A tripeptide with coordinating groups at both termini was designed and successfully complexed with silver(I) ion to give a crystalline porous material. The nanochannel of this material was composed of polyproline II helix of the peptide ligand and its diameter reached more than 2-nm-size. Furthermore, unique molecular recognition properties of this new material were also revealed.
