The structure of poly(L-ornithine)s and poly(L-lysine)s containing between 19% and 100% of azobenzene units in the side chains has been studied, by X-ray diffraction, between room temperature and 250[ddot]C. Polymers were found to exhibit mesomorphic structures of the smectic A type deriving from the β-structure of polypeptides. The influence of the nature of the amino acid is discussed.
