Probing nano-patterned peptide self-organisation at the aqueous graphene interface
Abstract
The peptide sequence GrBP5, IMVTESSDYSSY, is found experimentally to bind to graphene, and ex situ atomic force microscopy indicates the formation of an ordered over-layer on the graphene substrate. It is unclear if these patterns are stable under aqueous conditions. Here, advanced molecular dynamics simulations suggest this patterning cannot be sustained in aqueous solution and suggest ways to realise pattern formation in water.
