PWM2Vec: An Efficient Embedding Approach for Viral Host Specification from Coronavirus Spike Sequences [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 COVID-19 pandemic, is still unknown and is an important open question. There are speculations that bats are a possible origin. Likewise, there are many closely related (corona-) viruses, such as SARS, which was found to be transmitted through civets. The study of the different hosts which can be potential carriers and transmitters of deadly viruses to ...

The carboxyl-terminal two-thirds of the ADP/ATP carrier polypeptide contains sufficient information to direct translocation into mitochondria [PDF]
, 1987 The precursor of the mitochondrial inner membrane protein ADP/ATP carrier is cytoplasmically synthesized without an amino-terminal peptide extension. We constructed a truncated precursor lacking the 103 amino acids from the amino terminus (about a third ...

Identification of novel small molecule inhibitors of ETS transcription factors
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.ETS transcription factors play an essential role in tumourigenesis and are indispensable for sprouting angiogenesis, a hallmark of cancer, which fuels tumour expansion and dissemination. Thus, targeting ETS transcription factor function could represent an effective, multifaceted strategy to block tumour growth. The evolutionarily conserved E‐Twenty‐Six

Systematic in silico discovery of novel solute carrier-like proteins from proteomes.
PLoS ONE, 2022 Solute carrier (SLC) proteins represent the largest superfamily of transmembrane transporters. While many of them play key biological roles, their systematic analysis has been hampered by their functional and structural heterogeneity.

From protein binding to pharmacokinetics: a novel approach to active drug absorption prediction [PDF]
arXiv, 2008 Due to inherent complexity active transport presents a landmark hurdle for oral absorption properties prediction. We present a novel approach carrier-mediated drug absorption parameters calculation based on entirely different paradigm than QSPR. We capitalize on recently emerged ideas that molecule activities against a large protein set can be used for

ABSTRACTAAV is widely used for efficient delivery of DNA payloads. The extent to which the AAV capsid can be used to deliver a protein payload is unexplored. Here, we report engineered AAV capsids that directly package proteins – Protein Carrier AAV (pcAAV).

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae amino acid transporter Lyp1 has a broad substrate spectrum
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Yeast Amino acid Transporter family members mediate the import of amino acids, ranging from substrate specialists to generalists. Here, we show that the specialist transporter, Lyp1, has a broader substrate spectrum than previously described, with affinity constants spanning from micromolar to millimolar.

Parasites & Vectors, 2011 Background Tick carrier proteins are able to bind, transport, and store host-blood heme, and thus they function also as antioxidants. Nevertheless, the role of carrier proteins in ticks is not fully understood.

Distinct steps in the import of ADP/ATP carrier into mitochondria [PDF]
, 1987 Transport of the precursor to the ADP/ATP carrier from the cytosol into the mitochondrial inner membrane was resolved into several consecutive steps. The precursor protein was trapped at distinct stages of the import pathway and subsequently chased to ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The number of circulating tumor cells obtained from prostate cancer patients was increased approximately 5‐fold compared to regular CellSearch when processing 2 mL diagnostic leukapheresis material aliquots and increased by 44‐fold when processing 20 mL DLA aliquots using the flow enrichment target capture Halbach‐array.
