Discovery of Novel Active Diamidines as Clinical Candidates Against "Trypanosoma Evansi" Infection [PDF]

, 2007
The animal pathogenic protozoan, Trypanosoma evansi, leads to a wasting disease in equines, cattle and camels, commonly known as Surra. It is extensively distributed geographically with a wide range of mammalian hosts and causes great economical loss ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

DTA+VAE: Drug Target Affinity prediction with SELFIES String via variational autoencoder and Transformer6 protein model

, 2023
A crucial step in drug discovery is identifying drug-target interactions. Over the years, there have been many computational methods to determine whether a drug and a target will interact or not.

Drug-target affinity prediction using applicability domain based on data density

, 2022
In the pursuit of research and development of drug discovery, the computational prediction of the target affinity of a drug candidate is useful for screening compounds at an early stage and for verifying the binding potential to an unknown target.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

The ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy as guardians of the cellular proteome

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Perspective covers the three principles governing the crosstalk between the ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy in cellular proteostasis: (1) a shared ubiquitin code routing substrates via shuttle factors or autophagy receptors; (2) spatial compartmentalization into phase‐separated degradation hubs and organelle‐specific modules (exemplified

DTITR: End-to-end drug–target binding affinity prediction with transformers

Computers in Biology and Medicine, 2022
The accurate identification of Drug-Target Interactions (DTIs) remains a critical turning point in drug discovery and understanding of the binding process. Despite recent advances in computational solutions to overcome the challenges of in vitro and in vivo experiments, most of the proposed in silico-based methods still focus on binary classification ...

Phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates as molecular glues

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol phosphates (IPs) and phosphoinositides (PIPs) regulate diverse eukaryotic processes. Beyond recruiting signaling proteins or acting as structural cofactors, recent studies suggest they mediate protein–protein interactions as natural molecular glues.

Evaluation of Phage Display Discovered Peptides as Ligands for Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) [PDF]

, 2013
The aim of this study was to identify potential ligands of PSMA suitable for further development as novel PSMA-targeted peptides using phage display technology. The human PSMA protein was immobilized as a target followed by incubation with a 15-mer phage
