Polymers with covalent cross-links, once formed, cannot generally be reshaped, remolded, or deformed, which is attractive for creating robust materials but these properties can also severely limit ...

Insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) is a ubiquitous zinc-metalloprotease that hydrolyzes several pathophysiologically relevant peptides, including insulin and the amyloid β-protein (Aβ). IDE is inhibited ...

Recent Anseth Group Alum Josh McCall showed the that proteins encapsulated in hydrogels formed by radical-mediated thiol-ene polymerization maintain significantly more activity than those encapsulated ...
