Caveolin-Mediated Internalization of Fmoc-FF Nanogels in Breast Cancer Cell Lines
Introduction: Hydrogel nanoparticles, also known as nanogels (NGs), have been recently proposed as alternative supramolecular vehicles for the delivery of biologically relevant molecules like anticancer drugs and contrast agents. The inner compartment of

Vertebrate OTOP1 is also an alkali-activated channel
pH sensation is critical for survival of vertebrates. Here, authors found six vertebrate OTOP1 channels that were highly conserved and directly activated by extracellular alkali.

Amyloid-Like Aggregation in Diseases and Biomaterials: Osmosis of Structural Information
The discovery that the polypeptide chain has a remarkable and intrinsic propensity to form amyloid-like aggregates endowed with an extraordinary stability is one of the most relevant breakthroughs of the last decades in both protein/peptide chemistry and

Probing protein sequences as sources for encrypted antimicrobial peptides [PDF]
Starting from the premise that a wealth of potentially biologically active peptides may lurk within proteins, we describe here a methodology to identify putative antimicrobial peptides encrypted in protein sequences.
