We developed a new strategy for the functionalization of hyaluronic acid by chemical modification of its C-6 hydroxyl groups through an ether bond to obtain a cysteine-hyaluronic acid conjugate. This conjugate is suitable to prepare injectable and in situ formed hydrogels cross-linked by native chemical ligation and Michael addition under mild conditions.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D003432 Cross-Linking Reagents Reagents with two reactive groups, usually at opposite ends of the molecule, that are capable of reacting with and thereby forming bridges between side chains of amino acids in proteins; the locations of naturally reactive areas within proteins can thereby be identified; may also be used for other macromolecules, like glycoproteins, nucleic acids, or other.
