Intrinsically disordered proteins in various hypotheses on the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases
(Elsevier Academic Press Inc, 2019)Amyloid-beta (A beta) and alpha-synuclein (alpha S) are two intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) at the centers of the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, respectively. Different hypotheses have been ... -
Ion-imprinted polymer-on-a-sensor for copper detection
(MDPI-Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2022)The accumulation of metal ions in the body is caused by human activities and industrial uses. Among these metal ions, copper is the third most abundant ion found in the human body and is indispensable for health because ... -
Matching algorithm for improving ride-sharing by incorporating route splits and social factors
(Public Library Science, 2020)Increasing traffic congestion and the advancements in technology have fostered the growth of alternative transportation modes such as dynamic ride-sharing. Smartphone technologies have enabled dynamic ride-sharing to thrive, ... -
Microbial peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerases (ppIases): virulence factors and potential alternative drug targets
(Amer Soc Microbiology, 2014)Initially discovered in the context of immunomodulation, peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerases (PPIases) were soon identified as enzymes catalyzing the rate-limiting protein folding step at peptidyl bonds preceding proline ... -
MIPs and aptamers for recognition of proteins in biomimetic sensing
(Mdpi, 2016)Biomimetic binders and catalysts have been generated in order to substitute the biological pendants in separation techniques and bioanalysis. The two major approaches use either "evolution in the test tube" of nucleotides ... -
Molecular LEGO by domain-imprinting of cytochrome P450 BM3
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2018)Hypothesis: Electrosynthesis of the MIP nano-film after binding of the separated domains or holocytochrome BM3 via an engineered anchor should result in domain-specific cavities in the polymer layer. Experiments: Both the ... -
Molecularly imprinted polymer based sensors for SARS-CoV-2: where are we now?
(MDPI-Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2022)Since the first reported case of COVID-19 in 2019 in China and the official declaration from the World Health Organization in March 2021 as a pandemic, fast and accurate diagnosis of severe acute respiratory syndrome ... -
Multifunctional alginate-based hydrogel with reversible crosslinking for controlled therapeutics delivery
(Elsevier, 2020)Glycan-based alginate hydrogels have great potential in creating new vehicles with responsive behavior and tunable properties for biomedicine. However, precise control and tunability in properties present major barrier for ... -
