Synthetic Routes to a Library of Novel Methionine Synthase Inhibitors [PDF]
Fungal infections are of continuous concern, especially with regard to immunocompromised patients. In an effort to develop new potential anti-fungal agents, we have begun synthesizing a library of potential inhibitors of the fungal Methionine Synthase ...

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge
This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...

Unraveling Mycobacterium tuberculosis acid resistance and pH homeostasis mechanisms
Mycobacterium tuberculosis exhibits a remarkable resilience to acid stress. In this Review, we discuss some of the molecular mechanisms and metabolic pathways used by the tubercle bacilli to adapt and resist host‐mediated acid stress. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a successful pathogen that has developed a variety of strategies to survive and ...

Virtual screening of Microalgal compounds as potential inhibitors of Type 2 Human Transmembrane serine protease (TMPRSS2) [PDF]
More than 198 million cases of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been reported that result in no fewer than 4.2 million deaths globally. The rapid spread of the disease coupled with the lack of specific registered drugs for its treatment pose a great challenge that necessitate the development of therapeutic agents from a ...

Substrate-Specific Inhibition Constants for Phospholipase A2 Acting on Unique Phospholipid Substrates in Mixed Micelles and Membranes Using Lipidomics. [PDF]
Assaying lipolytic enzymes is extremely challenging because they act on water-insoluble lipid substrates, which are normally components of micelles, vesicles, and cellular membranes.
