Abstract
Amphipatic lipopeptides with polylyslne or poly(glutamic acid) peptidic chains have been synthesized. Their structural study, in the dry state and in water solution, by X-ray diffraction, has shown the existence of two types of mesophases: lamellar and hexagonal. The influence of the nature and the degree of polymerization of the peptidic chains and of the water concentration on the type and the structural parameters of the mesophases has been established.Keywords
