Going viral − Virus‐targeting nanobodies for research, diagnostics and therapy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The increasing prevalence of viral diseases represents a major threat for global human health. Nanobodies, small binding fragments derived from camelid heavy‐chain antibodies, offer versatile tools for viral research, diagnostics, and antiviral therapy.

The palmitoyl-CoA ligase Fum16 is part of a Fusarium verticillioides fumonisin subcluster involved in self-protection

open access: yesmBio
Fusarium verticillioides produces the mycotoxin fumonisin B1 (FB1), which disrupts sphingolipid biosynthesis by inhibiting ceramide synthase and affects the health of plants, animals, and humans. The means by which F. verticillioides protects itself from

Natural Product Primary Sulfonamides and Primary Sulfamates

open access: yes, 2015
Primary sulfonamide and primary sulfamate functional groups feature prominently in the structures of U.S. FDA-approved drugs. However, the natural product chemical space contains few examples of these well-known zinc-binding chemotypes, with just two ...

Candida albicans induces Metabolic Reprogramming in human NK cells and responds to Perforin with a Zinc Depletion Response

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
As part of the innate immune system, natural killer (NK) cells are directly involved in the response to fungal infections. Perforin has been identified as the major effector molecule acting against many fungal pathogens.
