Poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) for Enzyme Immobilization: Impact on Activity and Stability of Horseradish Peroxidase

BIOMACROMOLECULES, 12(5), 1822–1830.

By: S. Lane*, Z. Kuang *, J. Yom*, S. Arifuzzaman n, J. Genzer n , B. Farmer*, R. Naik *, R. Vaia *

MeSH headings : Enzyme Stability; Enzymes, Immobilized / chemistry; Enzymes, Immobilized / metabolism; Horseradish Peroxidase / metabolism; Kinetics; Molecular Dynamics Simulation; Polyhydroxyethyl Methacrylate / chemistry
TL;DR: A general enzyme-brush coupling motif must optimize reactive group density to balance binding with neutrality of surroundings to prevent loss of activity. (via Semantic Scholar)

2011 journal article

Time Dependence of Lysozyme Adsorption on End-Grafted Polymer Layers of Variable Grafting Density and Length

LANGMUIR, 28(4), 2122–2130.

By: J. Genzer n , S. Arifuzzaman n, R. Bhat n, K. Efimenko n , C. Ren * & I. Szleifer *

MeSH headings : Adsorption; Biofouling; Models, Molecular; Muramidase / chemistry; Polyhydroxyethyl Methacrylate / chemistry; Silicon Dioxide / chemistry; Surface Properties; Time Factors
TL;DR: This work monitors the time dependence of adsorption of lysozyme on surfaces comprising polymer assemblies made of poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) brushes grafted onto flat silica surfaces such that they produce patterns featuring orthogonal and gradual variation of the chain length and grafting density.

2009 journal article

Formation of surface-grafted polymeric amphiphilic coatings comprising ethylene glycol and fluorinated groups and their response to protein adsorption

BIOINTERPHASES, 4(2), FA33–FA44.

By: S. Arifuzzaman n, A. Oezcam, K. Efimenko n , D. Fischer * & J. Genzer n 

author keywords: adsorption; atomic force microscopy; biomedical materials; contact angle; ellipsometry; hydrophilicity; hydrophobicity; infrared spectra; polymer blends; polymer films; polymerisation; proteins; surface chemistry; X-ray absorption
TL;DR: Amphiphilic polymer coatings were prepared by first generating surface-anchored polymer layers of poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) on top of flat solid substrates followed by postpolymerization reaction on the hydroxyl terminus of HEMA’s pendent group using three classes of fluorinating agents.
