Gemcitabine integrated nano-prodrug carrier system
(American Chemical Society, 2017)Peptide nanomaterials have received a great deal of interest in drug-delivery applications due to their biodegradability, biocompatibility, suitability for large-scale synthesis, high drug-loading capacities, targeting ... -
Peptide based ligand discovery to prevent protein aggregation in neurodegenerative disease conditions
(Bilkent University, 2019-09)Neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and Huntington’s disease are cognitively and physically debilitating and progressive diseases due to the gradual and irreversible loss of discrete ... -
Synthetic biogenesis of bacterial amyloid nanomaterials with tunable inorganic-organic interfaces and electrical conductivity
(American Chemical Society, 2017)Amyloids are highly ordered, hierarchal protein nanoassemblies. Functional amyloids in bacterial biofilms, such as Escherichia coli curli fibers, are formed by the polymerization of monomeric proteins secreted into the ...
