Table 2.

Selected β-sheet-forming self-assembling designer peptides or segments of proteins and binary co-assembling peptide systems, color-coded to show amino acid sidechain patterning. Black, green, blue, and red letters indicate amino acids having hydrophobic, polar, positively charged, and negatively charged sidechains, respectively. Indicated charges correspond to neutral pH. Acetylated N-termini are indicated by the characters CH₃CO−. Amidated C-termini are indicated by –NH₂. The symbol ^DP represents a proline having non-natural D-chirality at the α-carbon.
