The addition of AuNPs to the peptide nanocapsules afforded relatively uncontrolled assemblies of AuNPs. In contrast, the self-assembly of AuNP−peptide conjugates afforded, after dialysis, controlled assemblies of AuNPs with sizes of 30−60 nm. ζ-Potential measurements revealed that the surface of the artificial viral capsid self-assembled from β-annulus peptide was coated with AuNPs.}, pages = {146--151}, title = {Self-assembled Artificial Viral Capsid Decorated with Gold Nanoparticles}, volume = {47}, year = {2015} }
