Over the past decade, silk sericin has emerged as a promising material for biomedical applications, especially in tissue engineering, where fine-tuning the physicochemical properties is crucial. However, previous studies, including those on the methacrylation of sericin (yielding SS-MA), showed limited tunability. Here, we developed a photo-cross-linkable sericin-based material modified with 2-aminoethyl methacrylate (AEMA) using two synthesis routes: sequential modification of SS-MA with AEMA (SS-MA-AEMA) and an efficient one-pot synthesis (SS-AEMA). The one-pot synthesis yielded materials containing only methacrylate groups, unlike the sequential modification that yielded a combination of methacrylamides and methacrylates. Our approach resulted in superior physicochemical properties. The resulting materials, including the previously described SS-MA, exhibited a broad range of properties, such as cross-linking kinetics (0.9–64.0 s), swelling behavior (311–3775%), and mechanical properties (10–140 kPa). These properties support applications across various tissues, from dermis to fibrous tissue. The materials also demonstrated fibroblast cytocompatibility with cell viabilities exceeding 96%.
