Abstract
Dipeptides are attractive building blocks for biomaterials in light of their inherent biocompatibility, biodegradability, and simplicity of preparation. Since the discovery of diphenylalanine (Phe-Phe) self-assembling ability into nanotubes, research efforts have been devoted towards the identification of other dipeptide sequences capable of forming these interesting nanomorphologies, although design rules towards nanotube formation are still elusive. In this review, we analyze the dipeptide sequences reported thus far for their ability to form nanotubes, which often feature water-filled supramolecular channels as revealed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, as well as their properties, and their potential biological applications, which span from drug delivery and regenerative medicine, to bioelectronics and bioimaging.

Abstract
Self-assembly of peptides demonstrates a great potential for designing highly ordered, finely tailored supramolecular arrangements enriched with high specificity, improved efficacy and biological activity. Along with natural peptides, hybrid peptide systems composed of natural and chemically diverse unnatural amino acids have been used in various fields, including drug delivery, wound healing, potent inhibition of diseases, and prevention of biomaterial related diseases to name a few. In this review, we provide a brief outline of various methods that have been utilized for obtaining fascinating structures that create an avenue to reproduce a range of functions resulting from these folds. An overview of different self-assembled structures as well as their applications will also be provided. We believe that this review is very relevant to the current scenario and will cover conformations of hybrid peptides and resulting self-assemblies from the late 20th century through 2022. This review aims to be a comprehensive and reliable account of the hybrid peptide-based self-assembly owing to its enormous influence in understanding and mimicking biological processes.

Abstract
Abstract
An achiral tripeptide, namely, Boc-γ-Abu-m-ABA-Aib-OMe (γ-Abu: γ−amino butyric acid; m-ABA: meta-aminobenzoic acid) was synthesized by solution phase procedure. The α, γ-hybrid peptide was designed in such a way that two dissimilar γ−amino acids, one flexible and another rigid, were positioned sidewise along with α-amino isobutyric acid (Aib) as C-terminal residue. The single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that two kinks were generated around centrally placed m-ABA. Interestingly, the peptide self-assembled via three intermolecular N–H···O and one intermolecular C–H···O hydrogen bonding interactions to supramlecular helical architecture.

Abstract
The morphology and molecular organization of a set of different N-terminal protecting groups containing dipeptides were investigated. The dipeptides consisted of two rigid noncanonical amino acids, Ant and Aib (X-Ant-Aib-OMe; Ant: anthranilic acid and 2-aminobenzoic acid, Aib: 2-aminoisobutyric acid). The change of the N-terminal protecting groups (X = Boc (peptide 1), Nα-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) (peptide 2), o-NBS (peptide 3), and p-NBS (peptide 4); NBS = nitrobenzyl sulfonyl group) displayed a characteristic morphological variety. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) experiments suggested that while t-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc) and p-NBS containing peptides exhibited distinct rod-like fiber structures, Fmoc and o-NBS containing peptides displayed remarkable vesicular structures. FE-SEM and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) suggested that peptide nanostructures demonstrated excellent thermal stability in dry conditions. Interestingly, peptides 2 and 4 exhibited a type-III N2 gas adsorption isotherm. Fluorescence microscopy analysis revealed that nanovesicles formed by peptides 2 and 3 have drug encapsulation properties exemplified by curcumin, rhodamine B, and carboxyfluorescein. These results will help in designing peptide-based nanomaterials for diverse applications.

Abstract
The achiral tripeptide Boc‐Aib‐MABA‐Aib‐OMe has the ability to co‐exist as nanospheres and as a network of nanofibers in methanol. Furthermore, AFM and TEM images show the presence of bulges in the network of nanofibers. Interestingly, the formation of nanofibers is seen to emerge from the outer boundary of the spherical structures. Some of the nanofibers curl up at the tip and later result in the formation of hollow nanospheres with thick boundaries. The presence of β‐turn‐like structures with hydrogen bonding is observed using FT‐IR studies. The presence of hydrogen bonding is also demonstrated by using NMR studies.

Abstract
We report here on three constitutionally isomeric peptides, each of which contains two glutamic acid residues and two lysine residues functionalized with S-aroylthiooximes (SATOs), termed peptide-H2S donor conjugates (PHDCs). SATOs decompose in the presence of cysteine to generate hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a biological signaling gas with therapeutic potential. The PHDCs self-assemble in aqueous solution into different morphologies, two into nanoribbons of different dimensions and one into a rigid nanocoil. The rate of H2S release from the PHDCs depends on the morphology, with the nanocoil-forming PHDC exhibiting a complex release profile driven by morphological changes promoted by SATO decomposition. The nanocoil-forming PHDC mitigated the cardiotoxicity of doxorubicin more effectively than its nanoribbon-forming constitutional isomers as well as common H2S donors. This strategy opens up new avenues to develop H2S-releasing biomaterials and highlights the interplay between structure and function from the molecular level to the nanoscale.
