Schematic showing the general primary, secondary, and tertiary structure of MDP highlighting the hydrophilic (blue), hydrophobic (pink), and charged (purple) domains. Peptide monomers assemble via hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions to form beta-sheet-rich fibers that extend along the peptide backbone hydrogen-bonding axis to form fibrils.
