Competitive ELISA for Protein-lipopolysaccharide (LPS) Binding
Lipopolysaccharide is the major constituent of the outer membrane of gram-negative bacteria and, once released from the bacterial surface into the bloodstream, is a potent activator of the host immune system, which can lead to septic shock.

Discovery and Characterization of a Cryptic Secondary Binding Site in the Molecular Chaperone HSP70
Heat Shock Protein 70s (HSP70s) are key molecular chaperones that are overexpressed in many cancers and often associated with metastasis and poor prognosis. It has proven difficult to develop ATP-competitive, drug-like small molecule inhibitors of HSP70s

Competitive Carboxylate–Silicate Binding at Iron Oxyhydroxide Surfaces [PDF]
Dissolved silicate ions in wet and dry soils can determine the fate of organic contaminants via competitive binding. While fundamental surface science studies have advanced knowledge of binding in competitive systems, little is still known about the ranges of solution conditions, the time dependence, and the molecular processes controlling competitive ...
