Bio‐Click Chemistry: Enzymatic Functionalization of PEGylated Capsules for Targeting Applications

All sorted: The enzyme Sortase A was used to catalyze functionalization of PEGylated capsules with an activation-specific anti-platelet single-chain antibody (scFv). This enzymatic method allows fast, covalent, and site-directed functionalization of delivery vehicles under mild conditions. Activation-specific anti-platelet scFv-coated PEGylated capsules exhibited a high level of selective binding to thrombi, thus suggesting their potential for thrombosis therapy.
