Biological Macrocycle: Supramolecular Hydrophobic Guest Transport System Based on Nanodiscs with Photodynamic Activity
A biogenic macrocycle-based guest loading system has been developed by the self-assembly of membrane scaffold protein and phospholipids. The resulting 10 nm level transport system can increase the solubility of hydrophobic photodynamic agent hypocrellin B in aqueous medium and exhibited a cellular internalization capacity with substantial photodynamic activity.
