Rational Design of Unsaturated, Thioether Ionizable Lipids for Enhanced In Vivo mRNA Delivery

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have rapidly become the delivery system of choice for RNA therapeutics. Here, a rational design approach is taken to improve the effectiveness of LNPs based on an ionizable thioether lipid library. The incorporation of unsaturated tails and bulkier, hydrophobic head groups significantly enhances their functionality and ...

DeepNovoV2: Better de novo peptide sequencing with deep learning [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Personalized cancer vaccines are envisioned as the next generation rational cancer immunotherapy. The key step in developing personalized therapeutic cancer vaccines is to identify tumor-specific neoantigens that are on the surface of tumor cells. A promising method for this is through de novo peptide sequencing from mass spectrometry data.
