Incorporating amino acid sequences into the backbone chain of polymers through thiol-ene chemistry
Peptide sequences containing at least two cysteines have been copolymerized by means of thiol-ene click chemistry. Well-defined and degradable polymers containing the amino acid sequences within the backbone chain were obtained when the reaction proceeded according to the Michael addition pathway.
