Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a multiblock copolypeptide having stimulus responsivity and surface adhesiveness. The multiblock copolypeptide of the present disclosure, which is composed of an elastin-based polypeptide and a mussel foot protein, can form self-assembled core-shell structures and hydrogels exhibiting reversible change in response to temperature stimulation and can be used usefully for biomedical applications due to remarkably superior surface adhesiveness.
