Well-defined homopolypeptides, copolypeptides, and hybrids of poly(l-proline).

Biomacromolecules 12 , 2396-2406, (2011)

l-Proline is the only, out of 20 essential, amino acid that contains a cyclized substituted α-amino group (is formally an imino acid), which restricts its conformational shape. The synthesis of well-defined homo- and copolymers of l-proline has been plagued e...

Recent advances in the analysis of the site-specific isotopic fractionation of metabolites such as fatty acids using anisotropic natural-abundance 2H NMR spectroscopy: application to conjugated linolenic methyl esters.

Anal. Bioanal. Chem 399(3) , 1187-200, (2011)

The full elucidation of the enzymatic mechanisms leading to polyunsaturated ω-3 to ω-5 fatty acids (PUFAs) occurring in plants or microorganisms by analyzing their site-specific isotopic fractionation profiles is a challenging task. Isotropic SNIF-NMR® method...

Complete determination of natural site-specific enantio-isotopomeric excesses in linoleic acid using natural abundance deuterium 2D NMR in polypeptide mesophases.

Chem. Commun. (Camb.) 46(35) , 6599-601, (2010)

NAD 2D NMR spectroscopy using chiral mesophases made of poly-gamma-benzyl-l-glutamate and pyridine allowed us to evaluate, for the first time, the natural site-specific enantio-isotopomeric excesses at each methylene group of linoleic acid, a central, essenti...

An all-atom molecular dynamics simulation of a spherical micelle composed of amphiphilic N-acetylated poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(gamma-benzyl L-glutamate) (PEG-PBLG-Ac) block copolymers was performed in aqueous solution at 298.15 K and 1 atm. Such copolymers ...

Post-assembly derivatization of electrospun nanofibers via strain-promoted azide alkyne cycloaddition.

J. Am. Chem. Soc. 134(41) , 17274-7, (2012)

A primary amine-derivatized 4-dibenzocyclooctynol (DIBO) was used to initiate the ring-opening polymerization of poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) (DIBO-PBLG). This initiator yields well-defined PBLG polymers functionalized with DIBO at the chain termini. The DIBO e...

Synthesis and characterization of a block copolymer containing regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) and poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate).

Macromol. Rapid Commun. 32(3) , 302-8, (2011)

Poly(3-hexylthiophene)-b-poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) (P3HT-b-PBLG) rod-rod diblock copolymer was synthesized by a ring-opening polymerization of γ-benzyl-L-glutamate-N-carboxyanhydride using a benzylamine-terminated regioregular P3HT macroinitiator. The opto-e...

Enantiotopic discrimination in the deuterium NMR spectrum of solutes with S4 symmetry in chiral liquid crystals.

J. Chem. Phys. 134(13) , 134502, (2011)

Enantiotopic discrimination in the NMR spectra of prochiral rigid solutes in chiral liquid crystals (CLC), by the ordering mechanism, is limited to molecules possessing one of the four, so called, "allowed" symmetries, D(2d), C(2v), C(s), and S(4). So far, su...

A biodegradable and serum-resistant gene delivery carrier composed of polyamidoamine-poly N,N'-di-(2-aminoethyl) aminoethyl glutamine copolymer.
