  1. Peptide Structure Stabilization by Click Chemistry

    As Boc and Fmoc protected derivatives of both azido and alkyne amino acids are available, they can be introduced into peptide sequences through standard SPPS protocols, for example. In an α-helical secondary structure amino acids at positions i and i+4 are above each other.

  3. Carbohydrates for Click Chemistry

    Protein and lipid glycosilation is a life-governing and omnipresent process. Glycoconjugates display a multitude of biological effects from protein folding and stabilization, energy storage, cell surface interaction through molecular recognition motifs for cell-cell communication, and structural support and protection.

  5. Polydispersity of Polymer Carriers

    The polymers in this context are a polymeric linear structures with n repeating units of monomers. Depending whether the polymer is consisting of one single molecular weight (only one n existing) or of a range of compounds with an average mass and a distribution of n around a mean value, polymers are referred to as “monodisperse” or “polydisperse”.
