Herein, we report the efficient exfoliation of MoS 2 in aqueous medium by short cationic peptide nanotubes featuring the nucleating core 17 LVFFA 21 of b-amyloid (Ab 1-42), as equence associated with Alzheimers disease.T he role of morphology,l ength, and nature of the amyloid surface on exfoliation/dispersions of MoS 2 were investigated through specific mutations of the amyloid sequences.N otably,o wing to the properties of both the constituents,s elf-assembled soft nanostructures and MoS 2 ,t he hybrid dispersions responded reversibly to various stimuli, including temperature,p H, and light. Addition of aprotease resulted in loss of the dispersions, which are otherwise stable for months at ambient conditions. The design flexibility of the peptide sequences,a long with the stimuli-responsiveness and biodegradability,c an complement the applications of MoS 2 in diverse fields.
