title: Selective synthesis of double temperature-sensitive polymer-peptide conjugates.
abstract: A novel synthetic route has been developed to couple selectively a modified octa-peptide, that is able to gel at low temperature, to the prototypical thermoresponsive polymer poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) to give a bioconjugate that exhibits double thermoresponsiveness.
