Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Polymer gel nanoparticles having physically cross-linking points by self-associating molecules have attracted attention as bio/medical material in recent years. In this study, we constructed novel self-assemble gel particles (nucleic acid-clipping nanogel) by the duplex formation of complementary oligonucleic acids as an associative factor controlling the gel structure. Oligonucleic acid substituted pullulan was synthesized by click chemistry from azido group modified pullulan that is a water-soluble polysaccharide and alkyne modified oligonucleic acid. The oligonucleic acid substituted pullulan formed nanosize gel particles (about 100 nm) by duplex formation of oligonucleic acid in buffer.
