Extracellular vesicles from CLEC2-activated platelets enhance dengue virus-induced lethality via CLEC5A/TLR2

Nature Communications, 2019
Dengue virus (DENV) promotes leukocyte-platelet interactions that contribute to pathogenesis. Here, the authors report a role for C-type lectins CLEC2 and CLEC5A in platelet activation and NET formation and show that blockade of CLEC5A and TLR2 ...

Next Generation Hosts for Protein Recognition, Assembly and More

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The original design of synthetic receptors for proteins was based on macrocycles with a hydrophobic core and a polar/charged periphery. This design, geared towards protein recognition, facilitates receptor self‐assembly. Macrocycle oligomerization, in turn, contributes to protein assembly as evidenced in many cocrystal structures.

Precision Chemistry for Protein Lysine Modification

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Selective modification of lysine residues is challenging due to their similar intrinsic reactivity. Inspired by enzymatic recognition, ligand‐guided electrophiles enable site‐selective labeling and functionalization, while ligand‐guided catalyses achieve regioselective installation of bio‐relevant post‐translational modifications.

Ratiometric pH‐Responsive and Biomimetic Microparticles for Quantitative Monitoring of Phagosomal Acidification

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A series of hydrosoluble BODIPY pH probes allows building biomimetic pH sensors based on micrometric oil‐in‐water droplets. The ratiometric fluorescence output offers quantitative information on the evolution of pH during phagosome maturation. ABSTRACT We present a modular biomimetic fluorescent sensing platform designed to precisely interrogate the ...
