Abstract

Racemic assembly of minimalistic heterochiral tripeptides boosts their biocatalytic activity for ester hydrolysis. The amino acidic sequences are bioinspired and feature histidine (His) as a catalytically active residue, and the diphenylalanine (Phe-Phe) motif to drive self-assembly into anisotropic nanostructures that gel. This study thus provides key insights for the design of green biocatalysts with improved activity.
