A glycopeptide dendrimer inhibitor of the galactose specific lectin LecA & of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms
Biofilm inhibition is achieved with a phenylgalactosyl peptide dendrimer (see picture) that binds to the galactose-specific lectin LecA of P. aeruginosa. The multivalency of the ligands is critical for biofilm inhibition, although the nature of the linker between the peptide dendrimer and the galact...
