A glucose oxidase (GOx)-mediated glucose metabolism was in vitro mimicked and employed to regulate the self-assembly of peptide-based building blocks. In this new stimuli-responsive self-assembly system, two peptide-based building blocks, respectively, having aspartic acid (gelator 1) and lysine (gelator 2) residues were designed and prepared. When adding glucose and GOx to the aqueous solution of gelator 1 or the self-assembled fibrillar hydrogel of gelator 2 to construct glucose metabolism system, the metabolic product (gluconic acid) can trigger the protonation of the peptide molecules and induce the phase transitions of gelators 1 (sol-gel) and 2 (gel-sol). Because this glucose metabolism regulated peptide self-assembly is built on the oxidation of glucose, it can be used as a simple visual biosensor for glucose detection.
