Abstract

A linear poly-α-amino-acid derivative has at least glutamic or aspartic or serinic repeating units and additionally having a functional group at one or both ends of the polymer backbone and/or only a single functional group as a side group on the polymer backbone, the said functional end group and/or side group being other than alcohol. The said functional derivative is useful for the modification of biologically active materials.
