摘要	Self-assembly of peptide-based molecules has emerged as an appealing strategy for developing intelligent nanomaterials with favorable biocompatibility and biodegradability. However, how to design the self-assembly systems with controllable and reversible rheological property is still challenging. In this study, coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulation is employed to develop peptides-based hydrogel with photo-stimuli-responsive capability. Our simulations demonstrate that the bisazoFA molecule, generated by grafting azobenzene (azo) moiety to the phenylalanyl-alanine (FA), can self-assemble into twisted networks. With the introduction of diphenylalanine (FF), the micelles undergo morphological transitions from networks to lamellar structures. By manipulating the UV-vis light irradiation, the wormlike structure with orderly-arranged hydrophobic interior is achieved. The distinct self-assembled structures can induce varied viscosity. Furthermore, the mechanisms underlying the self-assembly/stimuli-response processes are examined in the perspective from energy and structure. Specifically, the varied structural/rheological property of systems are driven by the stacking modes between bisazoFA and spatial arrangement of FF molecules. This bottom-up in silico design not only offers a feasible strategy to develop hydrogel with controllable and reversible rheological property, but also enrich our understanding of the self-assembly of peptide-based molecules.
