Smart hybrid materials by conjugation of responsive polymers to biomacromolecules

The properties and applications of biomacromolecules, for example proteins, can be enhanced by the covalent attachment of synthetic polymers. This Review discusses the modification of these biomacromolecules with stimuli-responsive polymers. The properties and applications of biomacromolecules, for...
