Coacervation of Elastin-Like Polypeptides: A Coarse-Grained Perspective
Journal of Chemical Theory and ComputationElastin-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
BiomacromoleculesElastin-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.

Elastin-Like Polypeptides as Thermosensitive Polymer System
Advanced Materials Research, 2014Thermo-responsive elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) were successfully obtained by inverse transition cycling (ITC) and recursive directional ligation (RDL). Six ELPs displayed thermal properties, depending on their sequence and chain length. It was found that the ELP[KV8F-4 and ELP[KV8F-8 were effective as thermosensitive materials at the body ...

Application of elastin-like polypeptides to therapeutics in leukemia
2020In this dissertation, applications of protein polymers for leukemia treatment will be discussed. Elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs), derived from human tropoelastin, are protein polymers that consist of the pentameric amino acid repeat, (VPGXG)? where ?X? represents a guest amino acid that can be any amino acid, and ?n?

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 ...

Fundamental Studies on Elastin-Like Oligo- and Polypeptides
2012The potential applications afforded by elastin-based materials are primarily a product of their stimulus-responsive nature at both the microscopic and macroscopic level. The details of this report are intended as an investigation of stimulus response at or near condition boundaries.
