Abstract

Polymeric derivatives of proteins are synthesized by the reaction of the amino groups of proteins with N,N-diethylacrylamides containing terminal carboxyl groups, having a molecular weight of (13–62) × 103, and exhibiting a lower critical solution temperature of 34–29°C. It is shown for the first time that the lower critical solution temperature of the obtained derivatives is determined not only by the molecular weight of the polymer and protein but also by the conformation of the protein macromolecule.
