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

Lymphoma caused by intestinal microbiota. [PDF]
, 2014 The intestinal microbiota and gut immune system must constantly communicate to maintain a balance between tolerance and activation: on the one hand, our immune system should protect us from pathogenic microbes and on the other hand, most of the millions ...

Diet, intestinal microbiota and health
Journal of Food and Drug Analysis, 2020 Dietary component has direct effect on the intestinal microbiota profile. Intestinal microbiota plays critical roles in the health and well being of the host. Dietary habit is largely cultural and geographical base. A better understanding of the interactions between dietary components, food matrix and the intestinal microbes, would pave way for ...

Intestinal Amino Acid Transport and Metabolic Health
Annual Review of Nutrition, 2023 Amino acids derived from protein digestion are important nutrients for the growth and maintenance of organisms. Approximately half of the 20 proteinogenic amino acids can be synthesized by mammalian organisms, while the other half are essential and must be acquired from the nutrition.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...
