Fluorescent polyamines for gene delivery applications
We are working towards synthesizing interesting new polymers from simple organic starting materials. These polymers will be highly fluorescent and will be used to bind to DNA and RNA. The ultimate goal of the project is to treat cancer by binding RNA that can "turn off" the malignant cancer genes when it enters the cells. The INBRE summer student will make fluorescent polymers and study their ability to bind to a variety of DNA and RNA molecules
