[Starlike branched and hyperbranched biodegradable polymer systems as DNA carriers].
The information on the synthesis of new biologically compatible and biologically degradable DNA carriers based on starlike polymer conjugates of proteins (lysine dendrimers and their derivatives) and hyperbranched polyamino acids is reviewed. Their capacity to bind and compact DNA and to provide for transfection is discussed based on results obtained with model systems. The English version of the paper: Russian Journal of Bioorganic Chemistry, 2006, vol. 32, no. 3; see also http://www.maik.ru.
