Patent ID: 8541365

Claim:
Dendrimeric compounds comprising amino acids, of the formula 1 comprising a branched core with four -T-NH— branches, wherein n is an integer from 1 to 4 inclusive, wherein T is an alkylidene group —(CH 2 ) 2 CONH(CH 2 ) 2 —, and one R 2 branch, wherein R 2 is an —NH 2 group, or a moiety derived from a primary organic amine molecule, by removing a hydrogen atom from an amino group, and comprising at least four P terminal fragments, wherein P is an amino acid and/or peptide moiety derived from an amino acid/peptide molecule by removing a hydroxy group from a carboxy group, said amino acid/peptide moiety having at least one hydrogen atom at least one amino group optionally replaced by a protective group.
