Abstract
The synthesis and solution behavior of a series of β‐sheet fibril‐forming peptide–polymers is described. Several block copolymer architectures are explored, with various lengths and arrangements of the peptide and polymer blocks. One peptide–polymer, an 11‐amino acid peptide conjugated to a polydisperse poly(ethylene glycol) chain, has the ability to form uncommonly regular, aligned, and minimally aggregated β‐sheet fibrils (see Figure).
