Erratum: Signal propagation in proteins and relation to equilibrium fluctuations (PLoS Computational Biology (2007) 3, 9, (e172) DOI: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.0030172)) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Elastic network (EN) models have been widely used in recent years for describing protein dynamics, based on the premise that the motions naturally accessible to native structures are relevant to biological function. We posit that equilibrium motions also

Rhinovirus chemotherapy

open access: yesAntiviral Research, 2006
Human rhinoviruses (HRV), members of the Picornaviridae family, are comprised of over 100 different virus serotypes. HRV represent the single most important etiological agents of the common cold [Arruda, E., Pitkaranta, A., Witek Jr., T.J., Doyle, C.A., Hayden, F.G., 1997.

Identification of the Viral Pathogens in School Children With Acute Otitis Media in Central Java, Indonesia

open access: yesGlobal Pediatric Health, 2023
Acute otitis media (AOM) is one of the most common infectious diseases in pediatric clinical facilities and has a significant impact on health care. It is a polymicrobial disease and is usually preceded by a viral upper respiratory tract infection.

Ginsenoside Re protects rhinovirus-induced disruption of tight junction through inhibition of ROS-mediated phosphatases inactivation in human nasal epithelial cells

open access: yesHeliyon
Maintaining tight junction integrity significantly contributes to epithelial barrier function. If the barrier function is destroyed, the permeability of the cells increases, and the movement of the pathogens is promoted, thereby further increasing the ...

Clinical features of rhinovirus infection in hospitalized adult patients during the epidemic season 2017–2018

open access: yesЖурнал инфектологии, 2020
Purpose. Rhinovirus infection has in the past been perceived as a disease capable of causing mild respiratory symptoms in most cases in children. Modern clinical and epidemiological studies have shown that rhinovirus infection in adults and children and ...

An Evolutionary Approach to Drug-Design Using Quantam Binary Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm

open access: yes, 2012
The present work provides a new approach to evolve ligand structures which represent possible drug to be docked to the active site of the target protein. The structure is represented as a tree where each non-empty node represents a functional group.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

MISSEL: a method to identify a large number of small species-specific genomic subsequences and its application to viruses classification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Continuous improvements in next generation sequencing technologies led to ever-increasing collections of genomic sequences, which have not been easily characterized by biologists, and whose analysis requires huge computational effort.
