Abstract:
Rapid and highly efficient side-chain functionalization of polypeptides was achieved via combination of ring-opening polymerization of a new clickable monomer of γ-propargyl-L-glutamate N-carboxyanhydride (PLG-NCA) and thiol-yne photochemistry, which provides a convenient and universal route to prepare diverse polypeptide-based biomimetic hybrid materials.
