Abstract
A supramolecular strategy of switching the self-assembly of cyclic peptide-polymer conjugates using host-guest chemistry is proposed. The formation of tubular supramolecular polymers based on cyclic peptide-polymer conjugates can be controlled by reversibly attaching cucurbit[7]uril onto the cyclic peptide via host-guest interactions.
