The race drawn against bacteria facing the evolution of antimicrobial resistance fuels research for new drugs and therapeutic strategies. FKF, a tripeptide that is cationic and amphiphilic was examined in light of its potential antimicrobial activity. Acid titration of purified peptide solution, 6% w/v (136 mM), yielded a hydrogel at pH~ 4. Cryo-TEM images of FKF revealed distinct phases formed upon increase in pH, ranging from elongated needles, uniform width fibers, sheets and tubular structures. 1H NMR attested FKF charged states a
