Notes:
We designed a polypeptide that behaves as a photodevice by using a non-natural amino acid with replacement of an α-hydrogen by a squarylium dye and succeeded in syntheses of the non-natural amino acid derivative containing a squarylium and its peptide with trialanine Ala-Ala-Ala. Strong dye-dye interactions were confirmed by absorption and CD spectra for the peptide in 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol solution and in water suspension. The non-natural amino acid derivative could be deposited onto a PMeT/Au electrode by the micelle disruption method. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Biopoly 47: 179-183, 1998
