Short description of research profile

Main focus on biochemical characteristic of proteolytic enzymes using combinatorial chemistry methods. Design and synthesis of selective substrates of particular protease. Main interest: neutrophil proteases, diagnostic, molecular probes ect. Using our techniques we are able to characterized substrate specificity of any proteolytic enzyme. Also we are involoved in antimcrobial and immunostimulating peptides.
