To address limitations in the production of DNA aptamers against small molecules, we introduce a DNA-based capture-SELEX (systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment) protocol with long and continuous randomized library for more flexibility, ...
Bicyclic peptide ligands were found to have good binding affinity and target specificity. However, the method applied to generate bicyclic ligands based on phage-peptide alkylation is technically complex and limits its application to specialized laboratori ...
A synthetic procedure for the synthesis of two molecular borophosphate cages is described. Heating of ethyl phosphate with phenylboronic or 4-formylboronic acid in toluene gives [6+6] condensation products of the general formula EtOPO3BAr. Crystallogr ...

Alpha-synuclein (α-syn) is a natively unfolded protein that is closely linked to Parkinson’s disease (PD) by genetic, neuropathologic and biochemical evidence. Aggregated and fibrillar forms of α-syn are the main components of intracellular protein inclusi ...

The specific labeling of proteins with synthetic probes is a powerful approach to study protein function and protein tags have been widely used for this purpose. A well-established example for a self-labeling protein tag is SNAP-tag. It specifically reacts ...

Despite the establishment of design principles to optimize codon choice for heterologous expression vector design, the relationship between codon sequence and final protein yield remains poorly understood. In this work, we present a computational framework ...

Sodium bismuth titanate (NBT) ceramics are among the most promising lead-free materials for piezoelectric applications. This work reports the crystal structure and phase evolution of NBT and Fe-modified NBT (from 0-2 at.% Fe) using synchrotron x-ray diffra ...

Ruthenium complexes with bridging dicarboxylate ligands were combined with 1,2-di-4-pyridylethylene (dpe), 2,4,6-tri-4-pyridyltriazine (4-tpt), or 2,4,6-tri-3-pyridyltriazine (3-tpt) to give a tetranuclear rectangle or hexanuclear coordination cages. The c ...

Protein synthesis plays an important role in biological systems since its products, proteins and enzymes, constitute most of the molecular machinery required for cell regulation, growth and function in the tissue. Understanding the mechanisms of decoding a ...

There has been much discussion in the literature regarding the determinants of ribosomal decoding speed during the mRNA translation process. Computational results based on mechanistic models for ribosomal kinetics have predicted a major role for near-cogna ...
