RU K-EDGE EXAFS ANALYSIS OF A RUTHENIUM ANTICANCER DRUG-TRANSFERRIN ADDUCT

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中利用 资源由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目和 调查员(PI)可能从NIH的另一个来源获得了主要资金， 并因此可以在其他清晰的条目中表示。列出的机构是 该中心不一定是调查人员的机构。 我们提出了一个系统的多边XANES研究来确定与体外活性相关的基于Ru的抗癌金属药物的光谱特征。这将使从化学结构预测生物功能成为可能，从而辅助药物设计和优化过程。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. We propose a systematic multi-edge XANES study to determine spectroscopic signatures for Ru-based anticancer metallodrugs that correlate with in vitro activity. This would make possible the prediction of biological function from chemical structure and thus aid the drug design and optimization process.
