High Impact: The Role of Promiscuous Binding Sites in Polypharmacology

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
The literature focuses on drug promiscuity, which is a drug’s ability to bind to several targets, because it plays an essential role in polypharmacology.

Interaction of two strongly divergent archaellins stabilizes the structure of the Halorubrum archaellum

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, 2020
Halophilic archaea from the genus Halorubrum possess two extraordinarily diverged archaellin genes, flaB1 and flaB2. To clarify roles for each archaellin, we compared two natural Halorubrum lacusprofundi strains: One of them contains both archaellin ...

A time-resolved multi-omics atlas of Acanthamoeba castellanii encystment

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Encystment is a process that allows free-living and parasitic amoebae to survive in unfavorable environments. Here, Bernard et al. provide detailed insights into the early stages of encystment of Acanthamoeba castellanii by integrating RNA-Seq ...

Hyperglycemia attenuates fibroblast contractility via suppression of TβRII receptor modulated α-smooth muscle actin expression

open access: yesBiotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2022
Nonhealing wounds are a common complication in patients suffering from diabetes with hyperglycemia being the most deteriorating factor for this serious pathological condition. Despite the great body of data, the molecular mechanisms by which high glucose

PEPscan: A Broad Spectrum Approach for the Characterization of Protein-Binder Interactions?

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
In a previous study, we have shown that PEPscan can provide a cheap and rapid means to identify candidate interfering peptides (IPs), i.e., peptides able to disrupt a target protein-protein interaction.

Quenching protein dynamics interferes with HIV capsid maturation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
The process of HIV particle maturation involves complex molecular transitions. Here the authors combine NMR spectroscopy, cryo-EM, and molecular dynamics simulations to provide insight into the conformational equilibria in CA-SP1 assemblies relevant to ...

Antagonists of protein–protein interactions [PDF]

open access: yesChemistry & Biology, 2000
Protein-protein interactions are often attractive, but not straightforward, targets for disease therapy. Two strategies for identifying inhibitors of these interactions, peptide phage display and high-throughput screening, have recently shown new promise.

Protein–Protein Interactions in Translesion Synthesis

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Translesion synthesis (TLS) is an error-prone DNA damage tolerance mechanism used by actively replicating cells to copy past DNA lesions and extend the primer strand.

One-domain CD4 Fused to Human Anti-CD16 Antibody Domain Mediates Effective Killing of HIV-1-Infected Cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Bispecific killer cells engagers (BiKEs) which can bind to natural killer (NK) cells through the activating receptor CD16A and guide them to cells expressing the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env) are a promising new weapon for elimination of infected ...

Peroxisomal 2-Hydroxyacyl-CoA Lyase Is Involved in Endogenous Biosynthesis of Heptadecanoic Acid

open access: yesMolecules, 2017
Circulating heptadecanoic acid (C17:0) is reported to be a pathology risk/prognosis biomarker and a dietary biomarker. This pathology relationship has been shown to be reliably predictive even when independent of dietary contributions, suggesting that ...
