Having investigated chiroptical characteristics of homochiral solutions of biomimetics the rule of changing a chirality sign in spontaneous formation of supramolecular helical structures was experimentally substantiated. This self-organization presents evidence of a fundamental synergetic law of changing the chirality sign during the transition to a higher hierarchical level, being of common for modular prebiotic homochiral systems and basic molecular biological systems.
