Abstract
Previously we have shown that recombinantly produced amphiphilic oligopeptides with amino acid
sequence Ac-Ala-Ala-Val-Val-Leu-Leu-Leu-Trp-Glu-Glu spontaneously assemble into nano-sized vesicles
with an average diameter of 120 nm. Moreover, peptide vesicles could be stabilized by introducing multiple
cysteine residues within the hydrophobic domain of these amphiphilic oligopeptides, allowing the formation
of intermolecular disulfide bridges. In this
