Dipeptide heterochirality directs global chirality and mesoscale morphology during supramolecular co-assembly.

HYPOTHESIS The origin of biological homochirality and the principles governing heterochiral molecular interactions remain poorly understood. In self-assembling chiral systems, a linear CD-ee relationship generally indicates self-sorting driven by unfavorable heterochiral interactions, whereas nonlinear CD-ee dependence...
