Self‐Assembling Ligands for Multivalent Nanoscale Heparin Binding

Abstract

Supramolekulare Perlenkette: Polykationische Liganden organisieren sich zu sphärischen Pseudo-Dendrimeren, die mit Affinitäten und Bindungsarten, die denjenigen kovalenter Nanostrukturen wie Dendrimere und Proteine ähneln, an polyanionisches Heparin binden (siehe Bild; violett: Heparin, rot/blau: selbstorganisierender Ligand). Die Bindung der Liganden an Heparin führt zu einer Organisation der gebildeten Nanostrukturen auf der Nanoskala.
