Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Magnification Cross Sections for the Elliptic Umbilic Caustic Surface

open access: yesUniverse, 2019
In gravitational lensing, magnification cross sections characterize the probability that a light source will have magnification greater than some fixed value, which is useful in a variety of applications. The (area) cross section is known to scale as

Structural and biochemical analysis of a B12 superbinder

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
BtuG proteins are vitamin B12 scavengers in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, a dominant human gut bacterium. We present crystal structures of three BtuG homologs bound to cobalamin and its precursor cobinamide, revealing picomolar binding affinities, among the highest known for any natural protein.

The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

Cusp Singularities in the Magnetization Curve of Frustrated Kondo Necklace Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Magnetization processes of frustrated Kondo necklace model are studied by means of a density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method and an elementary band theory based on a bond-operator formalism.

Leucine‐rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) is a ganglioside‐binding protein

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neuronal hyperexcitability associated with a decrease/absence of the extracellular protein LGI1 has been suggested to be primarily due to the downregulation of Kv1 channel expression. The molecular mechanisms underlying this decrease have not yet been elucidated.

Generalized Antiorthotomics of (n, m)-Cusp Curves

open access: yesMathematics
In optics, light rays emitted from a light source form a wavefront (orthotomic) upon reflection by a mirror. The mirror is referred to as an antiorthotomic of the orthotomic.

Smaller is better: nanobodies meet NMR

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nanobodies are single‐domain antigen‐binding fragments derived from camelid heavy chain antibodies. Their small size, high stability, and exceptional specificity make nanobodies uniquely useful probes for NMR studies of protein dynamics, transient conformational states, and protein–protein interactions.

Quantization on the Ideal Boundary and the Finite Widths of Resonances

open access: yesQuantum Reports
Conformal field theory is quantized on the ideal boundary of a Riemann surface, and the effect on the widths of the resonances of the quantum states is evaluated.

Quantum caustics and the hierarchy of light cones in quenched spin chains

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2019
We show that the light conelike structures that form in spin chains after a quench are quantum caustics. Their natural description is in terms of catastrophe theory and this implies (1) a hierarchy of light cone structures corresponding to the different ...
