A range of chemical strategies have been used for crosslinking recombinant polypeptide hydrogels, although only a few have employed photocrosslinking approaches. Here, we capitalize on the novel insect protein, resilin, and the versatility of click reactions to introduce a resilin-like polypeptide (RLP) that is capable of photoinitiated thiol-ene crosslinking. Lysine residues of the RLP were functionalized with norbornene acid as confirmed via 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The RLPNs were subsequently photocrosslinked with multi-arm PEG thiols in the presence of a photoinitiator to form elastic hybrid hydrogels. The crosslinking reaction and resulting RLP-PEG networks demonstrated cytocompatibility with human mesenchymal stem cells in both 2D cell-adhesion and 3D photoencapsulation studies.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010455 Peptides Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS. Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides
D011092 Polyethylene Glycols Polymers of ETHYLENE OXIDE and water, and their ethers. They vary in consistency from liquid to solid depending on the molecular weight indicated by a number following the name. They are used as SURFACTANTS, dispersing agents, solvents, ointment and suppository bases, vehicles, and tablet excipients. Some specific groups are NONOXYNOLS, OCTOXYNOLS, and POLOXAMERS.

D057930 Click Chemistry Organic chemistry methodology that mimics the modular nature of various biosynthetic processes. It uses highly reliable and selective reactions designed to "click" i.e., rapidly join small modular units together in high yield, without offensive byproducts. In combination with COMBINATORIAL CHEMISTRY TECHNIQUES, it is used for the synthesis of new compounds and combinatorial libraries.

D059630 Mesenchymal Stem Cells Mesenchymal stem cells, also referred to as multipotent stromal cells or mesenchymal stromal cells are multipotent, non-hematopoietic adult stem cells that are present in multiple tissues, including BONE MARROW; ADIPOSE TISSUE; and WHARTON JELLY. Mesenchymal stem cells can differentiate into mesodermal lineages, such as adipocytic, osteocytic and chondrocytic.
