- W2036697585 abstract "Giant cell-like polymer vesicles, polymersomes, made from the diblock copolymer poly(ethylene oxide)-polybutadiene (PEO-PBD), have bilayer structures similar to the cell membrane but have superior and tunable properties for storage and stability. We have modified the terminal hydroxyl of the hydrophilic block with biotin-lysine (biocytin), a biologically derived group that imparts specific adhesiveness to a polymer colloid coated with avidin. The functionalized polymer will form vesicles, either on its own or when mixed with unmodified block copolymers that also form vesicles. The incorporation and mixing of the functionalized polymer into vesicle bilayers is measured using a fluorescent version ofbiocytin with confocal microscopy. The fluorescence signal associated with the vesicle is in proportion with the concentration of functional polymer added during vesicle construction. The adhesiveness of polymer vesicles containing functionalized biotinylated polymer to avidin coated microspheres is measured with micropipet aspiration. Two types of polymer vesicles were constructed: one where the functionalized polymer (molecular weight (MW), 10400 Da) was longer than the surrounding unfunctionalized polymer (MW, 3600 Da) and one where the functionalized polymer (MW, 10400 Da) was the same length as the unfunctionalized polymer. In all cases, the avidin-biotin bonds form kinetically trapped crossbridges that impart little tension as they form but require significantly more tension to break. The relative length of the functionalized polymer on the surface of the vesicle is an important determinant for the adhesion of a polymer vesicle but not for the adsorption of soluble avidin. Greater adhesion strengths are seen where the functionalized polymer is longer than the surrounding polymer. The concentration of functionalized polymer at which adhesion is maximal depends on the relative lengths of the polymers. When the functionalized polymer is the same length as the surface brush of the polymersome membrane, the critical tension is maximal at 10 mol % functionalized polymer concentration. However, when the biocytin groups are attached to a polymer which is larger than the surface brush, the critical tension is maximal at 55 mol % functionalized polymer. These results indicate that polymer mixing and length can control the interfacial adhesion of polymer brushes and must be understood to tune polymersome adhesiveness." @default.
