Conjugating two C16 lipids to a short ELP oligomer leads to formation of cylindrical micelles with a) inverse phase transition behavior whereas attaching a single C14 lipid to a long ELP results in formation of b) monodisperse spherical micelles. The lipid chain can be appended through multi-step chemical synthesis in a reaction vessel (a) or recombinantly via a single step, one-pot post-translational modification in a reprogrammed bacterial cell (b).
