The precise structural control is known for self-assembly into closed spherical structures (e.g., micelles), but similar control of open structures is much more challenging. Inspired by natural tobacco mosaic virus, we present the use of a rigid-rod template to control the size of a one-dimensional self-assembly. We believe that this strategy is novel for organic self-assembly and should provide a general approach to controlling size and dimension. Copyright

An automated synthesis system, which is suitable for repetitive syntheses using similar reaction procedures, was used to synthesize systematically a library of all possible dipeptides (25) and tripeptides (125) from 5 protected amino acids. The apparatus has also been applied to the automated synthesis of 10 fragment tripeptide derivatives that are constituents of the hormone PACAP-27. The measured molecular optical rotation values of the library of 125 tripeptides were found to correlate well with calculated values obtained by summation of the molecular optical rotation values for the constituent amino acids.
