Multivariate PLS Modeling of Apicomplexan FabD-Ligand Interaction Space for Mapping Target-Specific Chemical Space and Pharmacophore Fingerprints. [PDF]
Biomolecular recognition underlying drug-target interactions is determined by both binding affinity and specificity. Whilst, quantification of binding efficacy is possible, determining specificity remains a challenge, as it requires affinity data for ...

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding
In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.

Computational approaches for investigating protein-ligand interactions - towards an in-depth understanding of the dengue virus methyltransferase [PDF]
Interactions between proteins and their ligands play crucial roles in many biological processes, such as metabolism, signaling, transport, regulation or molecular recognition. Understanding the molecular basis of protein-ligand interactions is thus of

AFIR: A Dimensionless Potency Metric for Characterizing the Activity of Monoclonal Antibodies
For monoclonal antibody (mAb) drugs, soluble targets may accumulate several thousand fold after binding to the drug. Time course data of mAb and total target is often collected and, although free target is more closely related to clinical effect, it is ...

Structural and biochemical analysis of a B12 superbinder
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.

Application of Natural and Modified Biomacromolecules in Miniaturised Separative Analytical Techniques [PDF]
In pharmaceutical R & D, drug stereochemistry, and consequently the rotation of enantiomers, is very important. Because they act as chiral selectors in vivo, biomacromolecules have been extensively used as chiral selectors for the liquid chromatographic (
