Peptide Delivery to Tissues via Reversibly Linked Protein Transduction Sequences
The development of peptide-based therapeutics has suffered from challenges associated with delivery to intact tissue. In skin, an array of protein targets resides only tens of micrometers below the surface; however, because of difficulties in traversing ...

Immunological recognition by artificial neural networks [PDF]
The binding affinity between the T-cell receptors (TCRs) and antigenic peptides mainly determines immunological recognition. It is not a trivial task that T cells identify the digital sequences of peptide amino acids by simply relying on the integrated binding affinity between TCRs and antigenic peptides. To address this problem, we examine whether the

Microscopic Mechanism of Specific Peptide Adhesion to Semiconductor Substrates
The design of hybrid peptide-solid interfaces for nanotechnological applications such as biomolecular nanoarrays requires a deep understanding of the basic mechanisms of peptide binding and assembly at solid substrates.

Molecular basis for passive immunotherapy of Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
Amyloid aggregates of the amyloid-{beta} (A{beta}) peptide are implicated in the pathology of Alzheimer's disease. Anti-A{beta} monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have been shown to reduce amyloid plaques in vitro and in animal studies.

Loss of the frequently mutated chromatin remodeler ARID1A, a subunit of the SWI/SNF cBAF complex, results in less open chromatin, alternative splicing, and the failure to stop cells from progressing through the cell cycle after DNA damage in bladder (cancer) cells. Created in BioRender. Epigenetic regulators, such as the SWI/SNF complex, with important

AMP0: Species-Specific Prediction of Anti-microbial Peptides using Zero and Few Shot Learning [PDF]
The evolution of drug-resistant microbial species is one of the major challenges to global health. The development of new antimicrobial treatments such as antimicrobial peptides needs to be accelerated to combat this threat. However, the discovery of novel antimicrobial peptides is hampered by low-throughput biochemical assays. Computational techniques

Dual targeting of AKT and mTOR using MK2206 and RAD001 reduces tumor burden in an intracardiac colon cancer circulating tumor cell xenotransplantation model. Analysis of AKT isoform‐specific knockdowns in CTC‐MCC‐41 reveals differentially regulated proteins and phospho‐proteins by liquid chromatography coupled mass spectrometry. Circulating tumor cells

The major myosin-binding domain of skeletal muscle MyBP-C (C protein) resides in the COOH-terminal, immunoglobulin C2 motif. [PDF]
A common feature shared by myosin-binding proteins from a wide variety of species is the presence of a variable number of related internal motifs homologous to either the Ig C2 or the fibronectin (Fn) type III repeats.

Interplay of integrins and selectins in metastasis
Here we review the role of integrins and their interplay with selectins in metastasis. The efficacy of integrin‐targeted therapies may be reduced in tumors where metastasis relies heavily on selectins. In certain tumors, integrins and selectins exhibit a synergistic interaction during intraperitoneal dissemination.

Trinucleotide cassettes increase diversity of T7 phage-displayed peptide library
Background Amino acid sequence diversity is introduced into a phage-displayed peptide library by randomizing library oligonucleotide DNA. We recently evaluated the diversity of peptide libraries displayed on T7 lytic phage and M13 filamentous phage and ...
