Abstract
An original method for visual-differential analysis of conformational features in (bio)macromolecular structures is applied to theoretical study of the differences between the structural organizations of the D and L chiral forms of diphenylalanine nanotubes. Common features in the spatial organization of the inner surfaces of nanotube channels are described: The mirror positions of hydrophilic atoms and equal areas of their projections indicate that the internal surfaces in the channels of diphenylalanine nanotubes of the D and L forms are hydrated similarly. Minor differences have been revealed: a larger channel size in L nanotubes and a greater uniformity in the stacking of diphenylalanine layers in D nanotubes. The results are consistent with the experimental data.
