Synthesis of Uniform Protein−Polymer Conjugates

Lele, Bhalchandra S., Murata, Hironobu, Matyjaszewski, Krzysztof, Russell, Alan J.·2005·Biomacromolecules

Abstract

We have developed a novel technique to synthesize near-uniform protein-polymer conjugates by initiating atom transfer radical polymerization of monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-methacrylate from 2-bromoisobutyramide derivatives of chymotrypsin (a protein-initiator). Polymerization initiated from the monosubstituted protein-initiator resulted in the conjugate containing a single, near-monodisperse polymer chain per protein molecule with polydispersity index 1.05. Increasing the number of conjugated 2-bromoisobutyramide initiators per molecule of protein increased the molecular weights and polydispersity indices of the final protein-polymer conjugates. The generic nature of this technique was demonstrated by initiating polymerization of nonionic, cationic, and anionic monomers from the protein-initiator. Protein-polymer conjugates synthesized by this novel technique retained 50-86% of the original enzyme activity. The technique described herein should be useful in synthesizing well-defined protein-polymer conjugates exhibiting a wide range of physical and chemical properties.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
