Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The main purpose of this research is to fabricate a novel molecular system, in which artificial polymers are conjugated with bio-related peptides as graft chains. An elastin-like peptide (ELP), which is known to take thermo-responsive conformational transition, has been employed as a peptide and attached to the pH-responsive poly(acrylic acid) and poly(allylamine) as graft chains. These conjugates have successfully shown LCST (lower critical solution temperature) behaviors responsive to dual stimuli of pH and temperature. The alternate layer-by-layer assembly prepared from such anionic and cationic conjugates has shown a reversible structural color variation based on thermo-induced polarity change of ELP chains.
