Structural basis for the shielding function of the dynamic trypanosome variant surface glycoprotein coat [PDF]
Nature Microbiology 2 (2017), pp. 1523--1532, 2018 The most prominent defence of the unicellular parasite Trypanosoma brucei against the host immune system is a dense coat that comprises a variant surface glycoprotein (VSG). Despite the importance of the VSG family, no complete structure of a VSG has been reported.

ZONA PELLUCIDA GLYCOPROTEINS [PDF]
Annual Review of Biochemistry, 1988 All mammalian eggs are surrounded by a relatively thick extracellular coat, the zona pellucida, that plays vital roles during oogenesis, fertilization, and preimplantation development. The mouse zona pellucida consists of three glycoproteins that are synthesized solely by growing oocytes and assemble into long fibrils that constitute a matrix.

Functions of cell surface galectin-glycoprotein lattices [PDF]
, 2007 Programmed remodeling of cell surface glycans by the sequential action of specific glycosyltransferases can control biological processes by generating or masking ligands for endogenous lectins. Galectins, a family of animal lectins with affinity for beta-

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study investigates an alternative approach to reactivating the oncosuppressor p53 in cancer. A short peptide targeting the association of the two p53 inhibitors, MDM2 and MDM4, induces an otherwise therapeutically active p53 with unique features that promote cell death and potentially reduce toxicity towards proliferating nontumor cells.

Progress in the Detection of Erythropoietin in Blood, Urine, and Tissue
Molecules, 2023 Detection of erythropoietin (Epo) was difficult until a method was developed by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). WADA recommended the Western blot technique using isoelectric focusing (IEF)-PAGE to show that natural Epo and injected erythropoiesis ...

Systematic profiling of cancer‐fibroblast interactions reveals drug combinations in ovarian cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Fibroblasts, cells in the tumor environment, support ovarian cancer cell growth and alter morphology and drug response. We used fibroblast and cancer cell co‐culture models to test 528 drugs and discovered new drugs for combination treatment. We showed that adding Vorinostat or Birinapant to standard chemotherapy may improve drug response, suggesting ...
