| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We designed and synthesized a novel receptor targeted against the Gal-beta-1,3-GalNAc disaccharide incorporated liposomal vesicles. We selected a peptidyl bis(boroxole) derivative as the disaccharide recognition moiety of the designed receptor. We have previously constructed target-selective liposomal membrane fusion systems. To develop the functional liposomes with targeting capabilities against the Gal-beta-1,3-GalNAc disaccharide, we prepared the receptor incorporated liposomes and some types of the glyco- or glycosphingo- lipids possessing target liposomes. The membrane fusion behavior was examined by a probe dilution assay based on the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between the membrane-bound fluorophores NBD-PE and Rh-PE. The fusion kinetics based on the lipid mixing indicates thatthe designed receptor acts as an effective membrane fusion device toward Gal-beta-1,3-GalNAc disaccharide.
