Abstract
It is intended to provide a peptide or a phage recognizing nanographite structures and thus enabling efficient recognition, binding, separation and alignment of nanographite structures such as carbon nanohorns or carbon nanotubes, an artificial protein or a chimeric molecule comprising the above-described peptide bonded to a functional peptide, a protein, a labeling, etc., and a complex of the above-described peptide molecule, artificial protein or chimeric molecule with a nanographite structure. By panning peptide-presenting phages bonded to nanographite structures, a nanographite structure-binding peptide capable of specifically recognizing nanographite structures such as carbon nanohorns or carbon nanotubes is obtained.
