Combined whole-cell high-throughput functional screening for identification of new nicotinamidases/pyrazinamidases in metagenomic/polygenomic libraries

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Nicotinamidases catalyze the hydrolysis of the amide bond in nicotinamide to produce ammonia and nicotinic acid. These enzymes are an essential component of the NAD+ salvage pathway and are implicated in the viability of several pathogenic organisms. Its

Quantification of drug-induced fractional killing using high-throughput microscopy

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2021
Summary: Anti-cancer drugs kill only a fraction of cells within a population at any given time. Here, we describe a protocol to quantify drug-induced fractional killing over time using high-throughput imaging.

High-content live-cell multiplex screen for chemogenomic compound annotation based on nuclear morphology

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2022
Summary: Well-characterized small molecules enable the study of cell processes and facilitate target validation. Here, we describe a high-content multiplex screen to investigate cell viability over 48 h, which can be combined with investigating ...

Arbitrarily Accessible 3D Microfluidic Device for Combinatorial High-Throughput Drug Screening

open access: yesSensors, 2016
Microfluidics-based drug-screening systems have enabled efficient and high-throughput drug screening, but their routine uses in ordinary labs are limited due to the complexity involved in device fabrication and system setup.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Development of a High Throughput Platform for Screening Glycoside Hydrolases based on Oxime-NIMS

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2015
Cost effective hydrolysis of biomass into sugars for biofuel production requires high-performance low-cost glycoside hydrolase (GH) cocktails that are active under demanding process conditions.

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Protocol for screening inhibitors of the fungal sphingolipid-metabolizing enzyme ceramide synthase

open access: yesSTAR Protocols
Summary: Fungal sphingolipids have emerged as potent antifungal targets based on cumulative evidence demonstrating that fungal sphingolipid metabolism is essential to the virulence of pathogenic fungi. Here, we present a protocol to screen for inhibitors
