Glycoligands for targeted liposomes: design, development and ab-initio understanding of cell-vesicle recognition

In nature, several known proteins are glycosylated, and carbohydrate-cell receptor interactions mediate a plethora of key biological events, e.g. parasitisation and immune responses. Cell membranes display carbohydrate-binding proteins (lectins), which are able to selectively recognise specific suga...
