Retargeted adenoviruses for radiation-guided gene delivery [PDF]
The combination of radiation with radiosensitizing gene delivery or oncolytic viruses promises to provide an advantage that could improve the therapeutic results for glioblastoma. X-rays can induce significant molecular changes in cancer cells.

Space Layout of Low-entropy Hydration Shells Guides Protein Binding [PDF]
Protein-protein binding enables orderly and lawful biological self-organization, and is therefore considered a miracle of nature. Protein-protein binding is steered by electrostatic forces, hydrogen bonding, van der Waals force, and hydrophobic interactions.

Hyaluronan-Arginine Enhanced Interaction Emerges from Distinctive Molecular Signature with Improved Electrostatics and Side-Chain Specificity [PDF]
Hyaluronan, a sugar polymer found outside the plasma membrane, is a critical component of the extracellular matrix (ECM) scaffold. Hyaluronan's length and moderate negative charge aid in ECM entanglement and solubility. This allows it to effectively foster gel-like conditions, which are critical for supporting and protecting cells in various tissues ...

Specific protein-protein binding in many-component mixtures of proteins [PDF]
Proteins must bind to specific other proteins in vivo in order to function. The proteins must bind only to one or a few other proteins of the of order a thousand proteins typically present in vivo. Using a simple model of a protein, specific binding in many component mixtures is studied.

Blood Plasma Exosomes Contain Circulating DNA in Their Crown
It is known that circulating DNA (cirDNA) is protected from nuclease activity by proteins that form macromolecular complexes with DNA. In addition, it was previously shown that cirDNA can bind to the outer surface of exosomes.

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-binding protein is carried on lipoproteins and acts as a cofactor in the neutralization of LPS. [PDF]
Lipoproteins isolated from normal human plasma can bind and neutralize bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and may represent an important mechanism in host defense against gram-negative septic shock. Recent studies have shown that experimentally elevating

Protein folding and binding can emerge as evolutionary spandrels through structural coupling [PDF]
Binding interactions between proteins and other molecules mediate numerous cellular processes, including metabolism, signaling, and regulation of gene expression. These interactions evolve in response to changes in the protein's chemical or physical environment (such as the addition of an antibiotic), or when genes duplicate and diverge. Several recent
