Fungal Biofilm Resistance [PDF]

International Journal of Microbiology, 2012
Fungal biofilm infections have become increasingly recognised as a significant clinical problem. One of the major reasons behind this is the impact that these have upon treatment, as antifungal therapy often fails and surgical intervention is required. This places a large financial burden on health care providers.

Aktivierung eines Rezeptors sekundärer Botenstoffe durch allosterische Regulation eines dynamischen konformationellen Ensembles

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 38, September 15, 2025.
Intrinsisch ungeordnete Loops innerhalb globulärer Proteindomänen sind der Strukturbiologie lange Zeit entgangen. Söldner et al. zeigen hier, dass trotz dieser Unordnung durch die Bindung sekundärer Messenger in einem Rezeptor für eben diese Botenstoffe eine allosterische Modulation erfolgt.
