In this article, we show the great potential of dendrimers for driving the self-assembly of biohybrid protein nanoparticles. Dendrimers are periodically branched macromolecules with a perfectly defined and monodisperse structure. Moreover, they allow the possibility to incorporate functional units at predetermined sites, either at their core, branches, or surface. On these bases, we have designed and synthesized negatively charged phthalocyanine (Pc) dendrimers that behave as photosensitizers for the activation of molecular oxygen into singlet oxygen, one of the main reactive species in photodynamic therapy (PDT). The number of surface negative charges depends on dendrimer generation, whereas Pc aggregation can be tuned through the appropri...
