Neuroendocrine tumours through an epigenetic lens: Emerging insights for diagnosis and treatment
Abstract Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are well‐differentiated epithelial neuroendocrine neoplasms that frequently develop in the small intestine, pancreas, and lungs. NETs originate from neuroendocrine cells specialized in hormone secretion implicated in a number of physiological processes.

The role of the cyclic depsipeptide rings in antibiotics.
The physical and biological roles of the cyclic depsipeptides of actinomycin, quinomycin and triostin antibiotic families are proposed by examining the crystal structures of d(GC)-actinomycin D and d(CGTACG)-triostin A. The analyses suggest that not only are DNA-amino acid hydrogen-bonding and chromophore-base pair stacking crucially important for DNA ...

Characterizing the Anti-HIV Activity of Papuamide A
Papuamide A is representative of a class of marine derived cyclic depsipeptides, reported to have cytoprotective activity against HIV-1 in vitro. We show here that papuamide A acts as an entry inhibitor, preventing human immunodeficiency virus infection ...

Cyclic Carbo-Isosteric Depsipeptides and Peptides as a Novel Class of Peptidomimetics
A novel and highly efficient cyclization method has been developed to access a new class of cyclic carbo-isosteric depsipeptides and carbo-isosteric peptides.

Cytotoxic and Antibacterial Cyclodepsipeptides from an Endophytic Fungus Fusarium avenaceum W8
Seven cyclic depsipeptides, including two new cyclic pentadepsipeptides avenamides A (1) and B (2), were isolated from a plant-derived fungus Fusarium avenaceum W8 by using the bioassay-guided fractionation method.

Multi‐Targeting Non‐Specific Genome Engineering in Bacteria
In this study, we provide the first case to use the multi‐targeting integrase (MTI) systems in bacteria and develop a host‐independent generalizable approach, MNGE (Multi‐targeting Non‐specific Genome Engineering), for multi‐copy and random integration of metabolic genes or pathways in both Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria, which will ...
