Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Deconvolution of Targeted Protein–Protein Interaction Maps

open access: yes, 2016
Current proteomic techniques allow researchers to analyze chosen biological pathways or an ensemble of related protein complexes at a global level via the measure of physical protein–protein interactions by affinity purification mass spectrometry (AP-MS).

Nutrient/TOR signaling controls adipose mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) to regulate organismal growth in Drosophila

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

Mapping Dysfunctional Protein-Protein Interactions in Disease

open access: yesJournal of Visualized Experiments
Protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks are dynamically remodeled in disease, yet most systems biology approaches focus on changes in protein abundance, overlooking critical interaction-level dysfunction. Here, we present a robust, chemoproteomic method-dysfunctional Protein-Protein Interactome (dfPPI)-that enables high-throughput, systematic ...

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

New Molecular Aspects of Cardiac Arrest; Promoting Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Approaches

open access: yesArchives of Academic Emergency Medicine, 2018
Introduction: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a method to improve survival of patients with cardiac arrest. This study aimed to identify the key genes affected five minutes after cardiac arrest, hoping to elevate the efficacy of CPR.

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Systematic functional assessment of human protein-protein interaction maps

open access: yes, 2006
Protein-protein interaction maps can contribute substantially to the discovery of protein cooperation patterns in the cell. Recently, several large-scale human protein-protein interaction maps have been generated using experimental or computational ...

The microbiome in human skin aging

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐related skin changes encompass the well‐known visible phenotypic alterations, together with microbiome dysbiosis and a series of molecular aging hallmarks. These hallmarks characterize not only a fully stablished aged phenotype but also the skin aging process itself.

Linkage map of protein–protein interactions of Porcine teschovirus

open access: yesJournal of General Virology, 2005
A yeast two-hybrid study was conducted to catalogue the protein–protein interactions of the Porcine teschovirus non-structural proteins. Five homodimer, three reciprocal heterodimer and four unidirectional heterodimer interactions were observed. While several interactions are similar to those described in previous studies using enteroviruses, such as ...
