Multidomain Block Copolypeptide Self Assembly
This methodology allows the synthesis of well defined block copolypeptides through sequential additions of different monomers to the growing chains. Our lab has pioneered the self-assembly of amphiphilic block copolypeptides in water into a variety of structures with tunable properties.
