A vesicle–single walled carbon nanotube (CNT) conjugate was developed by a boronic acid–diol covalent linkage between a self-assembled vesicle and dispersed CNT. Trimesic acid based phenylboronic acid appended triple-tailed amphiphiles (T1 and T1S) were synthesized that formed monolayered vesicles through H-aggregation in DMSO–water (2:1 v/v) and pure water, respectively. Aqueous CNT dispersion was prepared with cholesterol-based glucose-functionalized amphiphile (D1). These two supramolecular self-assemblies were covalently linked by using a boronic acid–diol interaction between a phenylboronic acid based T1S vesicle and 1,2-diol moieties of glucose tethered dispersing agent (D1) to develop a vesicle–CNT conjugate. Lewis acid–base chemistry was exploited to form this boronate–diol adduct between two supramolecular self-assemblies. The formation of vesicles, CNT dispersion, and the vesicle–CNT conjugate was characterized by microscopic and spectroscopic techniques. Anticancer drug doxorubicin was encapsulated within this T1S-vesicle–D1-CNT conjugate with a higher loading capacity compared to the individual cargo carrier (vesicle or CNT). This cytocompatible T1S-vesicle–D1-CNT conjugate successfully delivered loaded doxorubicin within a B16F10 melanoma cell and also exhibited better cellular transportation ability compared to the drug-loaded vesicle or CNT. This was further reflected in an enhanced killing efficiency of the cancer cells by the vesicle–CNT conjugate compared to the drug-loaded vesicle or CNT.

A series of trivalent CD4-mimetic miniproteins was synthesized, in which three CD4M9 miniprotein moieties were tethered on a threefold-symmetric scaffold. The trivalent miniproteins were designed to target the CD4-binding sites displayed in the trimeric g
