Abstract
Bionanomaterials
In article number 2501785, Ayhan Yurtsever, Linhao Sun, Yuhei Hayamizu, Takeshi Fukuma, and co-workers investigate Tyr-His (YH) dipeptide tandem repeats assembled on cleaved graphite and MoS2 substrates. The study reveals how 3D hydration shells govern peptide nanoarchitecture assembly, with molecular visualization showing peptides adopt fully extended, linear conformations aligned with specific crystallographic orientations. The lengths of assembled peptides match their unfolded states, including hydration layers.
