The Internal Structure of Helical Pores Self‐Assembled from Dendritic Dipeptides is Stereochemically Programmed and Allosterically Regulated

Abstract

Keeping nature under control: The internal structure of helical porous protein mimics self-assembled from hybrid dendritic dipeptides is programmed by the stereochemistry of the dipeptide and regulated allosterically. This is the first example of a synthetic helical porous supramolecular structure that is stable both in solution and in the solid state, and that is created by a sequence of events related to those encountered in nature.
