    Product Description

    CAY10679 is an anionic oligopeptide-based bola-amphiphile that contains a hexane moiety flanked by a glycylglycine group at each end, which creates distinct hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions.1 The microtube self-assembling properties of this amphiphilic peptide have been studied in aqueous acidic solution.2 Bola-amphiphiles are of interest in the construction of nanotubes, nanovesicles, nanowires, nanocarriers for drug delivery, and other applications of bionanotechnology.1

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
