Medicinal Chemistry and Glycochemistry

We work on the borders of organic, bioorganic and medicinal chemistry. We work on two main projects: ligands for the lectin receptor DC-SIGN and their use in drug targeting and agonists of muscarinic receptors. In addition, we also synthesize ligands for the visualization of G-quadruplexes.

In our lab, we do mostly organic synthesis, purification of the compounds and their characterization. The evaluation of their biological activities as well as the preparation of nanoparticles are done by our collaborators.

In September 2021, we became an official Max Planck Partner Group. This prestigious partnership enables us to run several projects in the field of glycochemistry. 

More details about the projects can be found in the Research section.
