Get efficient: next-level xanthenium photocages
Photocages with fused ring systems for in vivo photoactivated therapy and GPCR photoactivation. Out now in JACS.
The Photoresponsive Molecular Tools Research Group led by Márton Bojtár is a subgroup of the Chemical Biology Research Group (Kele Lab) at the HUN-REN Research Centre for Natural Sciences in Budapest, Hungary.
The main focus of our research is the development of small molecules capable of various functions, mostly in biological systems by the action of light irradiation.
