"We report the analogy between the self-assembly properties of amphiphilic phospholipids and the similar behavior observed for quantum dot (CdSe/CdS)-diblock copolypeptide hybrid systems, and the effect of the self-assembly on secondary structures of the polypeptides. At neutral pH, the diblock copolypeptide, poly(dietliyleneglycol-L-lysine)-poly(L-lysine), comprises a positively charged poly-L-lysine (PLL) block and a hydrophilic and uncharged poly(diethyleneglycol-L-lysine) (PEGLL) block," scientists writing in the journal Langmuir report.
"By itself, the copolypeptide is not amphiphilic. However, when the polymers are mixed with water-soluble, negatively ...
