Genetic engineering methodology has enabled the synthesis of protein-based polymers with precisely controlled structures. Protein-based polymers have well-defined molecular weights, monomer compositions, sequences and stereochemistries. The incorporation of tailor-made motifs at specified locations by recombinant techniques allows the formation of hydrogels, sensitivity to environmental stimuli, complexation with drugs and nucleic acids, biorecognition and biodegradation. Accordingly, a special interest has emerged for the use of protein-based polymers for controlled drug and gene delivery, tissue engineering and other biomedical applications. This article is a review of genetically engineered polymers, their physicochemical characteristics, synthetic strategies used to produce them and their biomedical applications with emphasis on controlled release.
