Recently, the research group of Professor Liu Runhui from the School of Materials Science, ECUST published in Nature Protocols the method and detailed steps of preparing polypeptide polymers by standardized NCA open-ended rapid ring-opening polymerization with the title “Open-Vessel Polymerization of N-Carboxyanhydride (NCA) for Polypeptide Synthesis”. 

The article is first authored by Specially appointed Associate Researcher Wu Yueming of the School of Materials Science and Engineering, ECUST and is co-authored by Professor Liu Runhui. This research has been funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China and the Ministry of Science and Technology.
