Novel fusion proteins based on recombinant lectins for delivery of a cytotoxic peptide specifically to cancer cells
Thesis
Mohammed, S. Novel fusion proteins based on recombinant lectins for delivery of a cytotoxic peptide specifically to cancer cells. (Thesis). University of Salford

One of the most common post-translational modifications is covalent attachment of carbohydrates to proteins. At the cell surface, molecular recognition events involved in cancer metastasis are mediated by sugar moieties of glycoproteins. Evidence fro...
