Zwitterionic Poly(amino acid methacrylate) Brushes
A new cysteine-based methacrylic monomer (CysMA) was conveniently synthesized via selective thia-Michael addition of a commercially available methacrylate-acrylate precursor in aqueous solution without recourse to protecting group chemistry. Poly(cysteine methacrylate) (PCysMA) brushes were grown from the surface of silicon wafers by atom-transfer radical polymerization. Brush thicknesses of ca...
متن کاملSurface-grafted polysarcosine as a peptoid antifouling polymer brush.
Poly(N-substituted glycine) "peptoids" are a class of peptidomimetic molecules receiving significant interest as engineered biomolecules. Sarcosine (i.e., poly(N-methyl glycine)) has the simplest side chain chemical structure of this family. In this Article, we demonstrate that surface-grafted polysarcosine (PSAR) brushes exhibit excellent resistance to nonspecific protein adsorption and cell a...
متن کاملMolecular Design of Antifouling Polymer Brushes Using Sequence-Specific Peptoids
Material systems that can be used to flexibly and precisely define the chemical nature and molecular arrangement of a surface would be invaluable for the control of complex biointerfacial interactions. For example, progress in antifouling polymer biointerfaces that prevent non-specific protein adsorption and cell attachment, which can significantly improve the performance of an array of biomedi...
متن کاملAntibacterial and antifouling polymer brushes incorporating antimicrobial peptide.
Surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) has been used to prepare antifouling copolymer brushes based on 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl methacrylate (MEO(2)MA) and hydroxyl-terminated oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate (HOEGMA). The amount of hydroxyl reactive groups incorporated into the brushes was varied by changing the composition of the monomer mixture. These coatings were ...
متن کاملDevelopment and use of an atomistic CHARMM-based forcefield for peptoid simulation
Peptoids are positional isomers of peptides: peptoid sidechains are attached to backbone nitrogens rather than α-carbons. Peptoids constitute a class of sequence-specific polymers resistant to biological degradation and potentially as diverse, structurally and functionally, as proteins. While molecular simulation of proteins is commonplace, relatively few tools are available for peptoid simulat...
