Abstract

Rationally designed polypeptides with similar molecular structures but varying patterns of hydrogen bonding between the side groups have been synthesized and demonstrated to possess distinct solubility and thermal behaviors. Further balancing the ratio of both isopropylamine and ethylenediamine side groups endows the random copolymer with reversible thermo-sensitivity.
