Abstract
This study shows that β-annulus peptide modified with boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) at the C-terminal self-assembled into stable artificial viral capsid even at 1 µM, in contrast to unmodified or N-terminally modified peptides, which cannot self-assemble. Even when sodium dodecyl sulfate was present, the artificial viral capsid, which was stabilized by presumably π–π stacking interactions between BODIPYs at the surface, nearly retained the apparent diameter and formation ratio.
