Hardback. Series: Springer Theses. Num Pages: 153 pages, 76 black & white illustrations, 18 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: MMG; PSBC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 11. Weight in Grams: 403.
In her thesis, Sara Bobone outlines spectroscopic studies of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) which are promising lead compounds for drugs used to fight multidrug resistant bacteria. Bobone shows that AMPs interact with liposomes and she clarifies the structure of pores formed by one of these molecules. These results help us to understand how AMPs are selective for bacterial membranes and how their activity can be finely tuned by modifying their sequence. Findings which solve several conundrums debated in the literature for years. In addition, Bobone uses liposomes as nanotemplates for the photopolymerization of hydrogels - exploiting the self- assembly properties of ... Read more

About Sara Bobone
I received my M.Sc. Degree in Chemistry magna cum laude from the University of Rome "Sapienza". After the degree, I moved to Tor Vergata, where I won a fellowship for PhD students in Chemical Sciences, under the supervision of Prof. L. Stella. I defended my thesis in 2013 and then continued my work as a postdoctoral fellow. The thesis was ... Read more
