Abstract

We demonstrate a strategy for producing polymer bioconjugates which display both enzymatic and thermal responsiveness. This is achieved by combining the thermo-responsive properties of poly(2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline) (PiPrOx) with the self-assembly properties of fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl-tyrosine (Fmoc-Y), controlled by a phosphatase triggered mechanism.
