Synthetic molecular evolution of hybrid cell penetrating peptides

Nature Communications, 2018
Therapeutic peptide nucleic acids can be delivered into cells by conjugation to cell penetrating peptides (CPPs), but efficiency is usually low. Here the authors use synthetic molecular evolution and a luciferase-based library screen to generate new CPPs

Impact of Nanoparticle Stiffness on Endosomal Escape and Signaling Pathways in Cytosolic Delivery

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Nanoparticle (NP) stiffness affects cellular uptake, but its impact on intracellular distribution remains unclear. This study synthesizes silica nanocapsules with varying stiffness, inspired by viral mechanisms, and applies assays to measure cellular uptake and escape efficiency.

CABS-flex 2.0: a web server for fast simulations of flexibility of protein structures

, 2018
Classical simulations of protein flexibility remain computationally expensive, especially for large proteins. A few years ago, we developed a fast method for predicting protein structure fluctuations that uses a single protein model as the input.

Neutrophil extracellular trap-associated RNA and LL37 enable self-amplifying inflammation in psoriasis

Nature Communications, 2020
Antimicrobial peptide LL37 can bind nucleic acids and potentiate their sensing by endosomal TLRs. Here the authors show that LL37 binds to RNA from neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), which amplifies inflammation and production of more LL37 and NETs ...
