Molecular Encapsulation: Peptide Rotaxanes as Produg Systems

Objective

The aim of this project is to use a versatile supramolecular assembly process discovered by the Warwick group to derivatise bioactive peptides as rotaxanes thus preventing their in vivo degradation and allowing tailoring of their cell membrane transport characteristics.
