Methods for Controlling Small GTPase Activity
Small GTPases comprise a diverse class of signaling proteins in mammalian cells and regulate a variety of cellular processes such as cell growth, cell movement, vesicle formation, and nuclear transport. Due to their involvement in critical cellular pathways, changes in the activation state of small GTPases due to genetic mutations or alterations in ...

Nucleophosmin 1(NPM1) is an abundant human protein endowed with many functions whose dysregulation leads to various cancers and mutations are relevant in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). In the wild type form, pentameric NPM1 resides mainly in the nucleolus even if it shuttles toward the cytosol exerting its chaperon function, conversely in AML‐mutated ...

Benzoylurea scaffolds accurately mimic the side‐chain vectors of the i, i + 1/2, and i + 3 positions of polyproline type II helices, showing functional activity in the disruption of a protein–protein interaction implicated in breast cancer. Given the essential role of protein–protein interactions (PPIs) in cellular signaling pathways, their selective ...

Mitochondria‐Catalyzed Activation of Anticancer Prodrugs
Prodrug C is a water soluble, monomeric compound accumulating in mitochondria of cancer cells, where it is activated in the reaction with mitochondrial H2O2. The activation leads to the release of camptothecin that causes cell cycle arrest in G2 phase and cancer cell death.
