“I’m working on exploring the use of recombinant polypeptide to deliver platinum based anticancer therapeutics using Elastin like polypeptide (ELP). This involves cloning of bacteria, including its transformation with plasmids, plasmid extraction along with the expression of the protein in the transformed bacteria. This will be followed by characterisation of the protein and its conjunction with anti-neoplastic drugs.”
