چکیده

Polypeptoid brushes were synthesized by surface-initiated polymerization of N-substituted glycine N-carboxyanhydrides on self-assembled amine monolayers. Using the presented grafting-from approach, polypeptoid brush thicknesses of approximately 40 nm could be obtained as compared to previously reported brush thicknesses of 4 nm. Moreover, hydrophilic, hydrophobic and amphiphilic polymer brushes were realized which are expected to have valuable applications as nonfouling surfaces and as model or references systems for surface grafted polypeptides.

Nonfouling Polypeptide Brushes via Surface-initiated Polymerization of N(ε) -oligo(ethylene glycol)succinate-L-lysine N-carboxyanhydride.

This contribution describes the preparation of nonfouling polypeptide brushes via surface-initiated ring-opening polymerization of oligo(ethylene glycol) modified L-lysine N-carboxyanhydrides. Circular dichroism experiments indicated that these surface-anchored polypeptide chains assume an α-helical conformation, which does not change between pH 4 and 9. Furthermore, nonspecific adsorption of f...

Surface-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...
