Journal ArticleDOI
The physical properties of supramolecular peptide assemblies: from building block association to technological applications.
Lihi Adler-Abramovich,Ehud Gazit +1 more
TL;DR: The use of peptide nanostructures was indeed recently demonstrated in various fields including the design of molecular motors based on nanostructure complexation with a metal-organic framework, the delivery of therapeutic agents, the development of energy storage devices and the fabrication of piezoelectric-based sensors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-assembled peptide nanotubes are uniquely rigid bioinspired supramolecular structures.
TL;DR: This work finds that the averaged point stiffness of the nanotubes is 160 N/m, and that they have a correspondingly high Young's modulus of approximately 19 GPa, as calculated by finite element analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-assembled arrays of peptide nanotubes by vapour deposition
Lihi Adler-Abramovich,Daniel Aronov,Peter Beker,Maya Yevnin,Shiri Stempler,Ludmila Buzhansky,Gil Rosenman,Ehud Gazit +7 more
TL;DR: This work demonstrates the self-assembly of large arrays of aromatic peptide nanotubes using vapour deposition methods and shows that the nanotube arrays can be used to develop high-surface-area electrodes for energy storage applications, highly hydrophobic self-cleaning surfaces and microfluidic chips.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal and Chemical Stability of Diphenylalanine Peptide Nanotubes: Implications for Nanotechnological Applications
Lihi Adler-Abramovich,Meital Reches,Victoria L. Sedman,Stephanie Allen,Saul J. B. Tendler,Ehud Gazit +5 more
TL;DR: The significant thermal and chemical stability of the peptide nanotubes demonstrated here points toward their possible use in conventional microelectronic and microelectromechanics processes and fabrication into functional nanotechnological devices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phenylalanine assembly into toxic fibrils suggests amyloid etiology in phenylketonuria.
Lihi Adler-Abramovich,Lilach Vaks,Ohad Carny,Dorit Trudler,Andrea Magno,Amedeo Caflisch,Dan Frenkel,Ehud Gazit +7 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that at pathological concentrations, phenylalanine self-assembles into fibrils with amyloid-like morphology and well-ordered electron diffraction, suggesting a new amyloidsosis-like etiology for PKU.
