Small amphipathic peptides are responsible for the assembly of cruciferin nanoparticles

Abstract Amphipathic peptides are versatile building blocks for fabricating well-ordered nanostructures, which have gained much attention owing to their enormous design possibilities and bio-functionalities. However, using amphipathic peptides from natural proteins to create tunable nanostructures i...
