Properties
Description
YIGSR-PEG-chitosan, or chitosan-PEG-YIGSR peptide, is a conjugate designed for research, created by attaching a 750 Da PEG linker and the YIGSR motif to chitosan, a polysaccharide obtained from chitin. This combination utilizes chitosan's mucoadhesion, PEG's stealth properties, and YIGSR's bioactivity.
