In the present study, three biodegradable block copolymers composed of a poly(ethylene glycol) block and a copolypeptide block with varying compositions of cationic L-lysine (L-Lys) and hydrophobic benzyl-L-glutamate (Bzl-L-Glu) were designed for gene delivery applications. The polypeptides were synthesized by ring opening polymerization (ROP) and after orthogonal deprotection of Boc-L-Lys side chains, the polymer exhibited an amphiphilic character. To bind or encapsulate plasmid DNA (pDNA), different formulations were investigated: a nanoprecipitation and an emulsion technique using various organic solvents as well as an aqueous pH-controlled formulation method.
