Functional Nanoscale Therapeutics

We will develop new functional nanoscale medicines that engage and co-operate with cellular pathways that were designed to process and extract useful information from endogenous nanostructures, as well as protect the organism from nanoscale pathogens. We show how functional hybrid nanostructures, part-synthetic and part-cell-derived biomolecular condensate, elicit the full repertoire of cellular processing steps. In particular the enabling of highly efficient escape from endosomes and providing intracellular access to nanostructure embedded biomolecular networks. We show how cellular defences include nanoscale molecular interaction gating mechanisms that grant access on the formation of…
