Use of complementary nucleobase - containing synthetic polymers to prepare complex self - assembled morphologies in water †
Amphiphilic nucleobase-containing block copolymers with poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate) as the hydrophilic block and nucleobase-containing blocks as the hydrophobic segments were successfully synthesized using RAFT polymerization and then self-assembled via solvent switch in aqueous solutions. Effects of the common solvent on the resultant morphologies of the adenine (A) ...
متن کاملThe synthesis and aqueous solution properties of sulfobutylbetaine ( co ) polymers : comparison of synthetic routes and tuneable upper critical solution temperatures †
Polysulfobutylbetaine (SBB) (co)polymers, zwitterionic species bearing ammonium and sulfonate groups separated by a butyl spacer in every repeat unit, were prepared through three different synthetic routes and their aqueous solution behaviour was studied. Postpolymerization quaternization of poly[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate] with 1,4-butanesultone resulted in incomplete modification due...
متن کاملLiquid-crystalline supramolecular polymers formed through complementary nucleobase-pair interactions.
We report how the placement of nucleobase units, thymine, or N6-(4-methoxybenzoyl)adenine, onto the ends of a mesogenic core, bis-4-alkoxy-substituted bis(phenylethynyl)benzene, affects the properties of these materials. We show that addition of these bulky polar groups significantly reduces the range of liquid-crystalline behavior of these compounds. However, mixing two complementary nucleobas...
متن کاملNucleobase-Containing Polymers: Structure, Synthesis, and Applications
Nucleobase interactions play a fundamental role in biological functions, including transcription and translation. Natural nucleic acids like DNA are also widely implemented in material realm such as DNA guided self-assembly of nanomaterials. Inspired by that, polymer chemists have contributed phenomenal endeavors to mimic both the structures and functions of natural nucleic acids in synthetic p...
متن کاملMolecular interactions between micellar polysialogangliosides and affinity-purified tetanotoxins in aqueous solution.
Two-affinity purified tetanotoxin forms, TeToA and TeToB, with different affinities for gangliosides were characterized by analytical ultracentrifuge, circular dichroism (CD), and amino acid composition. Both toxin forms share a common sedimentation coefficient of about 6-7 S and similar alpha-helicity values, but they vary in amino acid composition. Incubation of TeToB with micellar polysialog...
