Peptide nanotubes, which are extended tubular β-sheet-like structures, are constructed by self-assembly of flat, ring-shaped peptide subunits made up of alternation D- and L-amino acid residues. Peptide self-assembly is directed by the formation of an extensible network of intersubunit hydrogen bonds. In this work, fabricated peptide nanotubes were modified with thiol-functionalized to immobilize the peptide nanotubes onto the gold substrate. Nanotube structures were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). |
