3In-silico prediction of synergistic anti-cancer drug combinations using multi-omics data
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019)Chemotherapy is a routine treatment approach for early-stage cancers, but the effectiveness of such treatments is often limited by drug resistance, toxicity, and tumor heterogeneity. Combination chemotherapy, in which two ... -
Alanine scanning effects on the biochemical and viophysical properties of intrinsically disordered proteins: a case study of the histidine to alanine mutations in amyloid-beta(42)
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2019)Alanine scanning is a tool in molecular biology that is commonly used to evaluate the contribution of a specific amino acid residue to the stability and function of a protein. Additionally, this tool is also used to ... -
BMP-2 and BMP-9 binding specificities with ALK-3 in aqueous solution with dynamics
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2017)Signal ligands of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily include the bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs). BMPs bind to type I and type II serine-threonine kinase receptors and trigger the transphosphorylation ... -
Development of a larval zebrafish infection model for clostridioides difficile
(Journal Of Visualized Experiments, 2020)Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) is considered to be one of the most common healthcare-associated gastrointestinal infections in the United States. The innate immune response against C. difficile has been described, ... -
Electrochemical MIP-sensors for drugs
(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, 2018)In order to replace bio-macromolecules by stable synthetic materials in separation techniques and bioanalysis biomimetic receptors and catalysts have been developed: Functional monomers are polymerized together with the ... -
Electrosynthesized MIPs for transferrin: Plastibodies or nano-filters?
(Elsevier Advanced Technology, 2018)Molecularly imprinted polymer (MP) nanofilrns for transferrin (Trf) have been synthesized on gold surfaces by electro-polymerizing the functional monomer scopoletin in the presence of the protein target or around pre-adsorbed ... -
Epitope region identification challenges of intrinsically disordered proteins in neurodegenerative diseases: Secondary structure dependence of alpha-synuclein on simulation techniques and force field parameters
(Wiley, 2020)Due to fast aggregation processes of many disordered proteins in neurodegenerative diseases, it is difficult to study their epitope regions at the monomeric and oligomeric levels. Computer simulations complement experiments ... -
FKBPs in bacterial infections
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2015)Background: FK506-binding proteins (FKBPs) contain a domain with peptidyl-prolyl-cis/trans-isomerase (PPlase) activity and bind the immunosuppressive drugs FK506 and rapamycin. FKBPs belong to the immunophilin family and ... -
How an ACE2 mimicking epitope-MIP nanofilm recognizes template-related peptides and the receptor binding domain of SARS-CoV-2
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2022)Here we aim to gain a mechanistic understanding of the formation of epitope-imprinted polymer nanofilms using a non-terminal peptide sequence, i.e. the peptide GFNCYFP (G485 to P491) of the SARS-CoV-2 receptor binding ... -
Insights into the molecular mechanisms of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases with molecular simulations: understanding the roles of artificial and pathological missense mutations in intrinsically disordered proteins related to pathology
(Mdpi, 2018)Amyloid-beta and alpha-synuclein are intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), which are at the center of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease pathologies, respectively. These IDPs are extremely flexible and do not adopt ... -
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 ... -
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?
