Targeting and Photodynamic Killing of a Microbial Pathogen Using Protein Cage Architectures Functionalized with a Photosensitizer

The selectivity of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (PDT) can be enhanced by coupling the photosensitizer (PS) to a targeting ligand. Nanoplatforms provide a medium for designing delivery vehicles that incorporate both functional attributes. We report here the photodynamic inactivation of a pathog...
