Photoinduced Morphological Transformation in the Azobenzene-Cored Hybrid Peptides

Key Points

This research aims to explore how peptide structures change in response to light, providing insights into the origins of life.
Development of stimuli-responsive pseudopeptides that respond to photoirradiation.
Observation of morphological transformations to form vesicles, fibers, and spherical aggregates.
Morphological transformations were successfully induced by photoirradiation.
Pseudopeptides displayed reversible transformations, suggesting potential applications in life origin studies.

Abstract

Template-directed peptide self-replication provides new insights into origin of life research. We present stimuli-responsive pseudopeptides that undergo reversible morphological transformation upon photoirradiation. These pseudopeptides form vesicles, fibers, and spherical aggregates...
