Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Through the analysis of hepatitis B virus envelope protein, we have identified the following novel functional domains: active targeting domain, stealth domain, and cell invasion domain. By displaying these domains as synthetic peptide, the artificial and conventional DDS carriers could function as next-gen DDS carrier that functions like hepatitis B virus. Furthermore, in other viruses, we have identified similar functional domains in their envelope proteins. These results strongly suggested that various next-gen DDS carriers could be generated by this strategy.
