## Abstract The self‐assembly of hybrid diblock copolymers composed of poly(HPMA) and __β__‐sheet peptide P11 (CH~3~CO‐QQRFQWQFEQQ‐NH~2~) blocks was investigated. Copolymers were synthesized via thiol‐maleimide coupling reaction, by conjugation of semitelechelic poly(HPMA)‐SH with maleimide‐modifie

## Abstract We demonstrate here that rationally designed block copolypeptides based on poly(L‐arginine) and β‐sheet peptides can form toroidal nanostructures. In aqueous solution, we found that 1D nanoribbons roll up and connect in an end‐to‐end fashion under charge‐balanced conditions, resulting i
