Abstract
Template synthesis of high-aspect-ratio, one-dimensional cadmium sulfide nanostructures results from the mineralization of unsymmetric peptide-based bolaamphiphiles. These templates, which are comprised of self-assembled linear aggregates, display molecule-specific cadmium ion capture ability.
