Is Enhancer Function Driven by Protein–Protein Interactions? From Bacteria to Leukemia
Enhancers are key regulatory elements that are conceptually conserved from bacteria to humans. Enhancer dysregulation is common in cancers, including leukemia. We argue that highly specific protein–protein interactions, including transcription factors, mediate enhancer‐promoter proximity to allow enhancer‐bound factors to directly act on RNA polymerase

Abstract A deep in silico investigation of various microsomal prostaglandin E2 synthase‐1 (mPGES‐1) protein systems is here reported using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Firstly, eight different proteins models (Models A−H) were built, starting from the active enzyme trimer system (Model A), namely that bound to three glutathione (GSH) cofactor ...

Engineering antibodies with cancer‐associated binding sites
This review describes antibodies that perform direct/indirect roles in cancer treatment by binding to effective targets and discusses how antibodies kill tumors and modulate tumor microenvironment through these targets. The classification of expression systems for antibody production is summarized to guide appropriate selection based on different ...

Advances in Cytosolic Delivery of Proteins: Approaches, Challenges, and Emerging Technologies
Proteins regulate almost all biological processes, and overcoming the protein's natural membrane inpermeability will provide a unique opportunity for intracellular targeting of related therapeutic proteins. Chemical modification of proteins and different types of delivery vectors can mediate intracellular transport of proteins, providing new ideas for ...

A case of heavy-chain deposition disease with good long-term renal survival and a literature review
Background Monoclonal immunoglobulin deposition disease (MIDD) is characterized by the deposition of nonamyloid monoclonal immunoglobulin and its free fragment light chain and/or heavy chain in systemic tissues and organs, and the kidney is most ...
