Calcium ions as bioinspired triggers to reversibly control the coil-to-helix transition in peptide-polymer conjugates

Controlling a coil-to-helix transition in peptide-polymer conjugates with soft stimuli requires the careful balancing of stabilizing and destabilizing effects in the peptide segment. The transition between two secondary structures of a bioconjugate is realized using calcium ions to establish a biomi...
