Electronic Properties of Cyclic beta-Peptide Nanotube Bundles Reflecting Structural Arrangement
Three kinds of cyclic tri-beta-peptides having different numbers of benzyl ester groups are synthesized. The cyclic peptides formed peptide nanotube bundles showing different surface potentials, piezoelectricity, and electrical conductivity, which are explained by the number of the benzyl ester groups and the rotational symmetry of the cyclic peptides.
