Abstract
⺠Self-assembly of the peptide-PEG conjugate DGRFFF-PEG is studied. ⺠The conjugate contains the RGD cell adhesion motif. ⺠Fibrils are observed, with β-sheet content. ⺠The PEG crystallizes on drying but the fibril structure is retained. ⺠Films of the conjugate at low concentration are biocompatible: cell adhesion and proliferation are observed.
