Sequence tagging of vesicles
Sequence tagging of vesicles may be exploited for unique
identification
of individual containers as well as for addressing these to
predetermined
geographic locations in (micro)fluidic systems or in living organisms.
Thus packages (“nanocontainers”) of chemicals can be spacially and
kinetically
addressed to perform chemical transformations at specific
micro/nano-locations and for cell/tissue/organ directed delivery of
medical drugs in disease treatment regimes.
This concept is a prerequisite to the "magic bullet" or the perfect drug, the Holy Grail of medicinal chemistry, which targets and delivers drug to a specific site, killing the diseased cells without damaging healthy tissues. See more here.
