Inclusion Complexations of Levamisole and Cocaine With Molecular Baskets. Fluorescence Displacement Assay for Detection of Cocaine and Its Adulterant Levamisole in Aqueous Media

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Levamisole is a common adulterant found in street‐distributed cocaine. Molecular baskets have been shown to form stable inclusion complexes with both substances. While levamisole inserts its benzene into the basket's cavity, cocaine utilizes its bicyclic ring for encapsulation.

Protocol for Reconstituting Adaptor‐Mediated Activation of Full‐Length Kinesin‐1

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Kinesin‐1 is a member of the kinesin superfamily that plays an essential role in intracellular cargo transport. In the absence of cargo, Kinesin‐1 exhibits low motor activity due to autoinhibition. Multiple studies have demonstrated that adaptor proteins, which link cargos to Kinesin‐1, can activate Kinesin‐1 by releasing the autoinhibition ...
