Plasma N-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide as Prognostic Marker in Fatal Cardial Decompensation with Sunitinib Malate Therapy [PDF]
A 74-year-old man with metastatic renal cell carcinoma and a history of cardiac failure was treated with sunitinib malate. MUGA echocardiography could not detect a relevant change in the ejection fraction although the clinical situation of the patient ...

Consideration of Binding Kinetics in the Design of Stapled Peptide Mimics of the Disordered Proteins Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 4E-Binding Protein 1 and Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 4G [PDF]
Protein disorder plays a crucial role in signal transduction and is key for many cellular processes including transcription, translation, and cell cycle. Within the intrinsically disordered protein interactome, the α-helix is commonly used for binding, which is induced via a disorder-to-order transition.

Identification of a Novel 81-kDa Component of the Xenopus Origin Recognition Complex [PDF]
The Xenopus origin recognition complex is essential for chromosomal DNA replication in cell-free extracts. We have immunopurified the Xenopus origin recognition complex with anti-Xorc2 antibodies and analyzed its composition and properties.

Drug hypersensitivity caused by alteration of the MHC-presented self-peptide repertoire [PDF]
Idiosyncratic adverse drug reactions are unpredictable, dose independent and potentially life threatening; this makes them a major factor contributing to the cost and uncertainty of drug development. Clinical data suggest that many such reactions involve

159 Stapled-peptides targeting the protein-binding interface of eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 4E (eIF4E) protein [PDF]
Targeting undruggable protein-protein interacting sites has received a promising boost with the developments of an emerging class of peptidomimetics called stapled-peptides (Verdine & Hilinski, 201...
