Dual-Stimuli Sensitive Hybrid Materials: Ferritin-PDMAEMA by Grafting-From Polymerization
- The combination of stimuli-responsive polymers and proteins that can transport drugs is a promising approach for drug delivery. The formation of ferritin-poly(2-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) conjugates by atom-transfer radical polymerization from the protein macroinitiator is described. PDMAEMA is a dual-stimuli-responsive polymer and the thermo- and pH-responsive properties of the resulting conjugates are studied in detail with dynamic light scattering (DLS). Additionally, it is demonstrated that the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of the protein-polymer conjugates can be further adjusted by the ionic strength of the solution. The conjugates are also characterized by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight (MALDI-ToF) mass spectrometry, and NMR spectroscopy. The obtained MALDI-ToF mass spectra are exceptional for protein-polymer conjugates and have not been so often reported.
