Biologically inert probes to unravel nutrient directed cellular processing

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

In this project we will develop novel compounds that can act as probes of the pathways present in cells for the uptake of nutrients and other essential molecules and show how to generate new agents for identifying and targeting specific populations of cells. The project will generate new tools for understanding biological processes including cell transport and processing. The insights gained from this work are expected to help guide the development of new agents for selectively delivering imaging and biologically active agents to cells.
