Abstract
(Figure Presented) Password? - Vesicle! A cationic dipeptide can self-assemble into nanotubes at physiological pH values. Such self-assembled cationic dipeptide nanotubes (CDPNTs) are able to convert into vesicles spontaneously upon dispersion dilution and thus carry single-stranded DNA into HeLa cells across the biomembrane (see picture).
