The self-assembly of small peptides into larger aggregates is an important process for the fundamental understanding of abiogenesis. In this article we demonstrate that blends of cyclic dipeptides (2,5-diketopiperazines – DKPs) bearing either histidine or cysteine in combination with a lipophilic amino acid form highly stable aggregates in aqueous solution with esterase-like activity. We demonstrate
