The de novo design of self-assembling peptides has garnered significant attention in scientific research. While alpha-helical assemblies have been extensively studied, exploration of polyproline type II helices, such as those found in collagen, remains relatively limited. In this study, we focus on understanding the sequence-structure relationship in hierarchical assemblies of collagen-like peptides, using defense collagen Surfactant Protein A as a model. By dissecting the sequence derived from Surfactant Protein A and synthesizing short collagen-like peptides, we successfully construct a discrete bundle of hollow triple helices. Amino acid substitution studies pinpoint hydrophobic and charged residues that are critical for oligomer formation. These insights guide the de novo design of collagen-like peptides, resulting in the formation of diverse quaternary structures, including discrete and heterogenous bundled oligomers, two-dimensional nanosheets, and pH-responsive nanoribbons. Our study represents a significant advancement in the understanding and harnessing of collagen higher-order assemblies beyond the triple helix.
