Preclinical safety and immunogenicity of Streptococcus pyogenes (Strep A) peptide vaccines

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
We have developed two candidate vaccines to protect against multiple strains of Strep A infections. The candidates are combinatorial synthetic peptide vaccines composed of a M protein epitope (J8 or p*17) and a non-M protein epitope (K4S2).

Discovery of Cofactor Competitive Inhibitors against the Human Methyltransferase Fibrillarin

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2021
Fibrillarin (FBL) is an essential and evolutionarily highly conserved S-adenosyl methionine (SAM) dependent methyltransferase. It is the catalytic component of a multiprotein complex that facilitates 2′-O-methylation of ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), a ...

Systematic Evaluation of Normalization Methods for Glycomics Data Based on Performance of Network Inference

open access: yesMetabolites, 2020
Glycomics measurements, like all other high-throughput technologies, are subject to technical variation due to fluctuations in the experimental conditions. The removal of this non-biological signal from the data is referred to as normalization.

A CAF01-adjuvanted whole asexual blood-stage liposomal malaria vaccine induces a CD4+ T-cell-dependent strain-transcending protective immunity in rodent models

open access: yesmBio, 2023
Malaria is a leading cause of illness and death in children under 5 years of age in Sub-Saharan Africa. Currently, there is no highly efficacious malaria vaccine capable of inducing long-lasting immunity.

New Perspectives on Escherichia coli Signal Peptidase I Substrate Specificity: Investigating Why the TasA Cleavage Site Is Incompatible with LepB Cleavage

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
Escherichia coli signal peptidase I (LepB) has been shown to inefficiently cleave secreted proteins with aromatic amino acids at the second position after the signal peptidase cleavage site (P2′).

Cell surface-specific N-glycan profiling in breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Aberrant changes in specific glycans have been shown to be associated with immunosurveillance, tumorigenesis, tumor progression and metastasis. In this study, the N-glycan profiling of membrane proteins from human breast cancer cell lines and tissues was

Protein glycosylation as a diagnostic and prognostic marker of chronic inflammatory gastrointestinal and liver diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Glycans are sequences of carbohydrates that are added to proteins or lipids to modulate their structure and function. Glycans modify proteins required for regulation of immune cells, and alterations have been associated with inflammatory conditions.

Bovine Milk Glycome [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 2008
Bovine milk oligosaccharides have several potentially important biological activities including the prevention of pathogen binding to the intestinal epithelial and as nutrients for beneficial bacteria. It has been suggested that milk oligosaccharides are an important source of complex carbohydrates as supplements for the food and the pharmaceutical ...
