The Characteristics of PD-L1 Inhibitors, from Peptides to Small Molecules

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
The programmed cell death ligand protein 1 (PD-L1) is a member of the B7 protein family and consists of 290 amino acid residues. The blockade of the PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint pathway is effective in tumor treatment.

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

How Strong Is the Hydrogen Bond in Hybrid Perovskites?

open access: yesJournal of Physical Chemistry Letters, 2017
Hybrid organic–inorganic perovskites represent a special class of metal–organic framework where a molecular cation is encased in an anionic cage. The molecule–cage interaction influences phase stability, phase transformations, and the molecular dynamics.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Quantifying hydrogen bonding using electrically tunable nanoconfined water

open access: yesNature Communications
Hydrogen bonding plays a crucial role in biology and technology, yet it remains poorly understood and quantified despite its fundamental importance. Traditional models, which describe hydrogen bonds as electrostatic interactions between electropositive ...

l-Alanine hydrochloride monohydrate

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section E, 2008
Colorless crystals of l-alanine hydrochloride monohydrate, C3H8NO2+·Cl−·H2O, were obtained from a powder sample that had been left standing in a refrigerator for a few years.

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

Integrated genomic and proteomic profiling reveals insights into chemoradiation resistance in cervical cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
A comprehensive genomic and proteomic analysis of cervical cancer revealed STK11 and STX3 as a potential biomarkers of chemoradiation resistance. Our study demonstrated EGFR as a therapeutic target, paving the way for precision strategies to overcome treatment failure and the DNA repair pathway as a critical mechanism of resistance.

Quantum delocalization of protons in the hydrogen-bond network of an enzyme active site [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2014
Significance Because of the low mass of the proton, nuclear quantum effects can dramatically alter the properties of hydrogen-bond networks, especially when short and strong hydrogen bonds occur.
