Tuning Chelation by the Surfactant-Like Peptide A(6)H Using Predetermined pH Values

[Image: see text] We examine the self-assembly of a peptide A(6)H comprising a hexa-alanine sequence A(6) with a histidine (H) “head group”, which chelates Zn(2+) cations. We study the self-assembly of A(6)H and binding of Zn(2+) ions in ZnCl(2) solutions, under acidic and neutral conditions. A(6)H...
