41. Conclusions
1. Taking dipeptide diphenylalanine and its derivatives as building block, we have
constructed a series of assemblies with 1D, 2D and 3D structures via molecular
assembly.
2. Controlled assembly and disassembly of diphenylalanine peptides can be easily
tuned by changing physicochemical parameters or assembly conditions, such as
concentration, solvents and introducing small molecules to assembly systems.
3. These peptide-based assemblies possess good biodegradability, pH-responsivity
and physiological environment-responsivity, thus they may be potentially applied
in drug carriers, fast blood clotting and other biomedical applications.
4. The peptide-based fibrils possess good crystalline structures and demonstrate
excellent optical properties, they may be potentially applied in optical waveguiding.
