Hotspot-Driven Peptide Design via Multi-Fragment Autoregressive Extension [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Peptides, short chains of amino acids, interact with target proteins, making them a unique class of protein-based therapeutics for treating human diseases. Recently, deep generative models have shown great promise in peptide generation. However, several challenges remain in designing effective peptide binders. First, not all residues contribute equally

Bionanocomposite of Dual Antioxidant and Protease Function by Co‐Immobilization of Tannic Acid and Papain on Anionic Clays

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Development of highly stable bionanocomposite dispersions of antioxidant and protease activities was achieved by co‐immobilization of TA and papain on LDH nanoparticles. Abstract The synchronized operation of antioxidants and enzymes is necessary for the proper functioning of living organisms and various industrial processes.

Quantitative Proteomic Profiling of Tachyplesin I Targets in U251 Gliomaspheres

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2017
Tachyplesin I is a cationic peptide isolated from hemocytes of the horseshoe crab and its anti-tumor activity has been demonstrated in several tumor cells. However, there is limited information providing the global effects and mechanisms of tachyplesin I

Design of Potent Mannose‐6‐Phosphate Derivatives as Ligands for CI‐M6P/IGF2R Using Fluorescence Polarization Assay

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
We designed and synthesized novel mannose‐6‐phosphate (M6P) derivatives to enhance their binding affinity for the CI‐M6P/IGF2 receptor, which plays a key role in lysosomal targeting. Using a fluorescence polarization assay, we evaluated di‐, tri‐, and penta‐M6P peptides and modified M6P analogs.

Changes in Protein Expression of Renal Drug Transporters and Drug‐Metabolizing Enzymes in Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease Patients

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is the most prevalent inherited kidney disease and leads to bilateral kidney enlargement and progressive loss of renal function, often over decades. Comorbidities include hypertension, flank pain, and bacterial infections. The condition often necessitates prolonged multidrug therapy.

Bifunctional quorum-quenching and antibiotic-acylase MacQ forms a 170-kDa capsule-shaped molecule containing spacer polypeptides

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Understanding the molecular mechanisms of bacterial antibiotic resistance will help prepare against further emergence of multi-drug resistant strains. MacQ is an enzyme responsible for the multi-drug resistance of Acidovorax sp. strain MR-S7.

Synthesis of 19‐Hydroxyarachidonic Acid by Fungal Peroxygenases: An Experimental and Computational Study

open access: yesChemSusChem, Accepted Article.
Hydroxylated derivatives of arachidonic acid play crucial roles in physiology and inflammation response, with distinct biological effects for (R)‐ and (S)‐enantiomers, highlighting their pharmaceutical relevance. Here, we harness recombinant unspecific peroxygenases (UPOs)—from the fungi Coprinopsis cinerea (rCciUPO) and Agrocybe aegerita (rAaeUPO ...
