Funded Activity Summary

From Chemical Architecture to Protein Surfaces. Creation of small stable molecules that reproduce key functions of important protein surfaces, would be a significant technology breakthrough with many important potential applications in science, medicine & industry. As new scientific tools they could be used to interrogate biological systems & implicate specific protein surfaces in biological/disease mechanisms. As leads to new medicines (pharmaceuticals, vaccines, diagnostics), they could offer new ways of impacting on infection, diseases of the aged, & preventative medicine (National Research Priorities). As new intellectual property, the technology has the potential to advance basic science at the chemistry-biology interface while providing new economic opportunities for Australia.
