Toward Glycomaterials with Selectivity as Well as Affinity
Multivalent glycosylated materials (polymers, surfaces, and particles) often show high affinity toward carbohydrate binding proteins (e.g., lectins) due to the nonlinear enhancement from the cluster glycoside effect. This affinity gain has potential in applications from diagnostics, biosensors, and targeted delivery to anti-infectives and in an ...

Engaging an HIV vaccine target through the acquisition of low B cell affinity
Low affinity is common for germline B cell receptors (BCR) seeding development of broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) that engage hypervariable viruses, including HIV. Antibody affinity selection is also non-homogenizing, insuring the survival of low

Robust Unsupervised Hyperspectral Band Selection via Global Affinity Matrix Reconstruction
Unsupervised band selection is fundamental to alleviate the curse of dimensionality for hyperspectral imagery. Although many research works have been developed, it is still a challenging problem to improve the poor classification performance with a small

Generating Recombinant Antibodies to Membrane Proteins through Phage Display
One of the most important classes of proteins in terms of drug targets is cell surface membrane proteins, and yet it is a challenging set of proteins for generating high-quality affinity reagents.

Membrane proteins are attractive targets for monoclonal antibody (mAb) discovery and development. Although several approved mAbs against membrane proteins have been isolated from phage antibody libraries, the process is challenging, as it requires the ...

A Population Dynamics Model for Clonal Diversity in a Germinal Center
Germinal centers (GCs) are micro-domains where B cells mature to develop high affinity antibodies. Inside a GC, B cells compete for antigen and T cell help, and the successful ones continue to evolve.

MHC-independent αβTCRs (TCRs) recognize conformational epitopes on native self-proteins and arise in mice lacking both MHC and CD4/CD8 coreceptor proteins. Although naturally generated in the thymus, these TCRs resemble re-engineered therapeutic chimeric
