Covalent Modifications of the Ebola Virus Glycoprotein [PDF]
ABSTRACT The role of covalent modifications of the Ebola virus glycoprotein (GP) and the significance of the sequence identity between filovirus and avian retrovirus GPs were investigated through biochemical and functional analyses of mutant GPs.

Weighing the Proteasome for Covalent Modifications
Posttranslational modifications (PTMs) control protein function, but established peptide-based proteomic methods often fail to provide a comprehensive view of PTMs. In this issue of Chemistry & Biology, Gersch et al. describe an efficient combination of chromatographic separation and top-down mass spectrometry that together with an intuitive ...

Research Progress on Graphene/Polymer Composites with Non-covalent Surface Modification
Graphene possesses excellent mechanical, electrical and thermal properties, which has been wildly used in modification of polymer composites. However, graphene has poor compatibility with polymers due to its surface inactive properties.

Chemical strategies for the covalent modification of filamentous phage [PDF]
Historically filamentous bacteriophage have been known to be the workhorse of phage display due to their ability to link genotype to phenotype. More recently, the filamentous phage scaffold has proven to be powerful outside the realm of phage display technology in fields such as molecular imaging, cancer research and materials, and vaccine development.

Dimethyl Fumarate Induces Metabolic Crisie to Suppress Pancreatic Carcinoma
Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) is an approved drug used in the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) and psoriasis therapy. Multiple studies have demonstrated other pharmacological activities of DMF such as an anti-cancer agent. In particular, studies have shown

Chemical modification of the lectin of the marine coral Gerardia savaglia by marine quinone avarone [PDF]
The quinone avarone, isolated from the marine sponge Dysidea avara, possesses the ability to chemically modify proteins. In this work, modification of lectin isolated from the coral Gerardia savaglia by avarone was examined.

Quantitative Irreversible Tethering (qIT) for Target-directed Covalent Fragment Screening
Small molecules that react to form covalent bonds with proteins are widely used as biological tools and therapeutic agents. Screening cysteine-reactive fragments against a protein target is an efficient way to identify chemical starting points for ...

Implications of Widespread Covalent Modification of mRNA [PDF]
Whole transcriptome analysis reveals that one third of human and mouse genes express mRNAs containing methylated adenosines. Fat mass and obesity-associated ( FTO ) gene, a risk gene for obesity and metabolic abnormalities, demethylates the modified residues, suggesting a link between RNA methylation and disease.
