Cononsolvency of Elastin-like Polypeptides in Water/Alcohol Solutions

Biomacromolecules, 2019
Elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) are one of the most widely-studied classes of protein material because of their lower critical solution temperature (LCST)-like thermoresponsive behavior in aqueous solutions. Here, it is shown that ELPs also exhibit cononsolvency effects, similar to many other water-soluble polymers.

Elastin‐like polypeptides: Biomedical applications of tunable biopolymers

Peptide Science, 2010
AbstractArtificial repetitive polypeptides have grown in popularity as a bioinspired alternative to synthetic polymers. The genetically encoded synthesis, monodispersity, potential lack of toxicity, and biocompatibility are attractive features of these biopolymers for biological applications.

Buffer-Specific Interactions of Imidazolium with Elastin-Like Polypeptides

The Journal of Physical Chemistry B
Buffers are commonly added to protein solutions to stabilize their pH and are typically assumed to not influence any other property of the solution. A series of observations, however, indicate buffer-specific effects on protein stability, suggesting interactions of buffers with proteins.

Coacervation of Elastin-Like Polypeptides: A Coarse-Grained Perspective

Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation
Elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) are a class of bioengineered polymers that mimic the hydrophobic repeat units of the precursor of the elastin protein. These segments drive self-aggregation, a process influenced by various stimuli such as temperature, pH, salt concentration, hydrophobicity of guest amino acid residues, etc.

Protease-Driven Phase Separation of Elastin-Like Polypeptides

Biomacromolecules
Elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) are a promising material platform for engineering stimuli-responsive biomaterials, as ELPs undergo phase separation above a tunable transition temperature. ELPs with phase behavior that is isothermally regulated by biological stimuli remain attractive for applications in biological systems.

[Expression and purification of the antimicrobial polypeptide by fusion with elastin-like polypeptide].

Fen zi xi bao sheng wu xue bao = Journal of molecular cell biology, 2009
Elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) are biological macromolecules designed on the elastic structure and composition. ELPs are thermally responsive polypeptides that undergo reversible inverse phase transition. Below their inverse transition temperature (Tt), ELPs are soluble in water, but when the temperature is raised above Tt, phase transition occurs ...
