Porphyrin−Peptide Bioconjugates: Photophysical Properties and Targeted Singlet Oxygen-Mediated Photooxidation of Amyloid-β

Abstract The aberrant self-assembly of amyloid β (Aβ) peptides into toxic oligomers is a central event in Alzheimer’s disease, motivating the development of molecular systems capable of modulating or degrading these species. Porphyrins and porphyrin−peptide bioconjugates have eme...
