Abstract

Inspired by the multifunctionality of vitamin D‐binding protein and the multiple transient‐binding behavior of some intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), a polymeric platform is designed, prepared, and characterized for combined delivery of dermal protective and anticancer bioactive cargos on the basis of artificial single‐chain nano‐objects mimicking IDPs. For the first time ever, simultaneous delivery of folic acid or vitamin B9, and hinokitiol, a relevant natural bioactive compound that exhibits anticancer activity against human malignant melanoma cells, from these multidirectionally self‐assembled unimolecular nanocarriers is illustrated
