Abstract Catalysis is among the numerous applications enzyme polymer conjugates are expected to find in the field of materials science due to their ability to enhance and/or differentiate the activity of the parent enzymes. In this report, the synthesis of protein polymer conjugates of AaeUPO, a peroxygenase isolat ed from the basidiomycete Agrocybe aegerita , is presented. Peroxygenases have drawn significant interest as 450 monooxygenase substitutes. As heme thiolate enzymes, their range of reactions resembles that of P450 monooxygenases however, peroxygenases utili ze hydrogen peroxide or organic peroxides as oxidants, which enables their application also in non aqueous media. Therefore, UPOs are attractive biocatalysts for selective oxyfunctionalization of otherwise non reactive carbons. A variety of monomers were u tilized to synthesize hydrophobic, hydrophilic, responsive protein polymer bioconjugates via oxygen tolerant , controlled radical polymerization The synthesis and characterization of a variety of such bioconjugates will be presented together wit h initial studies on their response and catalytic properties.
