The display and analysis of proteins expressed on biological surfaces has become an attractive tool for the study of molecular interactions in enzymology, protein engineering, and high-throughput screening. Among the growing number of established display s ...
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is clinically-approved in the treatment of angiogenic disorders, particularly eye diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and skin cancers, such as basal cell carcinoma. PDT causes vascular occlusion resulting in ...
The clinical efficacy and safety of a drug is determined by its activity profile across many proteins in the proteome. However, designing drugs with a specific multi-target profile is both complex and difficult. Therefore methods to design drugs rationally ...
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a major mediator in innate immunity and inflammation and a potential therapeutic target in multiple inflammatory, infectious and autoimmune diseases including cancer. Current therapeutic strategies for target ...
Nanopharmaceuticals or nanomedicines are defined as nanometer sized (1 to 1000 nm) complex systems, consisting of at least two components, one of which being the biologically active moiety such as a drug, peptide, protein or nucleotide. Several nano-sized ...
Tumor necrosis factor super family (TNFSF) members regulate important processes involved in cell proliferation, survival and differentiation and are therefore crucial for the balance between homeostasis and inflammatory responses. Several members of the TN ...
The gene encoding fumarase (fum) from Thermus thermophilus was expressed in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The recombinant cells were heated at 70°C to inactivate indigenous enzymes and used for the bioconversion of fumaric acid to L-malic acid. By heatin ...
The identification of all protein targets of a given drug or bioactive molecule within the human body is a prerequisite for an understanding of its beneficial and deleterious activities. Current approaches to reveal protein targets often fail to reveal phy ...
Protein therapeutics represent a powerful class of clinically approved drugs for the prevention and treatment of various diseases. Once administered, the biological fate of protein therapeutics is governed by the body's various complex biochemical and biop ...
Current gene synthesis methods allow the generation of long segments of dsDNA. We show that these techniques can be used to create synthetic regulatory elements and describe a method for the creation of completely defined, synthetic variants of the PHOS pr ...
