Dual Responsiveness of a Tunable Thermosensitive Polypeptide

The temperature- and pH-dependent solubility of poly(γ-propargyl l-glutamate) (PPLG) functionalized through a copper-catalyzed 1,3-cycloaddition reaction between an alkyne and an azide can be tuned with precision over a broad range of conditions by varying the ratio of substitution of short oligo(et...
