Stimuli-responsive polymers have the unique property of undergoing a reversible phase transition. This property has attracted much interest for their application in the field of medicine and biotechnology, such as drug delivery systems. Linear polymers of ...
The condensation of aryl boronic acids with 2,3-dihydroxypyridine gives boronates, which self-assemble to form tetrameric macrocycles as evidenced by X-ray crystallographic analyses. ...
This study investigates the structure and organization of a series of hybrid diblock copolymers based on polyethylene glycol) (PEG) and peptide sequences inspired by the coiled coil protein folding motif. Circular dichroism spectroscopy and analytical ultr ...
This paper discusses the solid state and melt nanoscale structure of a series of novel poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) hybrid di- and triblock copolymers, which contain amphiphilic β-strand peptide sequences. The block copolymers have been prepared via solid-p ...
The conjugation of peptides/proteins and synthetic polymers is a useful strategy to overcome some of the limitations related to the use of the individual components. This review will highlight two aspects: enhanced structural control at the nanometer level ...
Two dimensionally ordered, monodisperse nanoparticle arrays of metals, metal oxides and possibly alloys can be obtained by using functional diblock copolymer micelles as templates. Tunability of the block copolymer micelle sizes and periodicities has been ...
This report describes the aqueous solution self-assembly of a series of polystyrenem-b-poly(L-lysine)n block copolymers (m = 8-10; n = 10-70). The polymers are prepared by ring-opening polymerization of e-benzyloxycarbonyl-L-lysine AT-carboxyanhydride usin ...
Herein we describe the structure and dynamics of self-assembled nano-objects generated from poly(ethylene glycol) based (PEG-ylated) coiled-coil hybrid block copolymers. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) experiments on spin-labeled samples provided a s ...
In this contribution, the synthesis of two novel amino-functionalized terrylene and quaterrylene diimide derivatives is described. These chromophores have been used as initiators for the ring-opening polymerization of N€-benzyloxycarbonyl-L-lysine N-carbox ...
