Thermostability profiling of MHC-bound peptides: a new dimension in immunopeptidomics and aid for immunotherapy design

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Thermostability of the peptide-MHC interaction is important for immunogenicity. Here the authors present a mass spectrometry method to measure thermostability among thousands of peptide-MHC complexes in parallel and a trained artificial neural network to

Smaller is better: nanobodies meet NMR

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nanobodies are single‐domain antigen‐binding fragments derived from camelid heavy chain antibodies. Their small size, high stability, and exceptional specificity make nanobodies uniquely useful probes for NMR studies of protein dynamics, transient conformational states, and protein–protein interactions.

Engineering Enzymes for Enhanced Thermostability

open access: yes, 1990
Chicken egg-white lysozyme (CEWL) is used as a model to attempt to engineer proteins for enhanced thermostability. Site-directed mutagenesis is employed for selective amino acid substitution to probe the contribution of an individual amino acid in a ...
