Bilayer interactions of pHLIP, a peptide that can deliver drugs and target tumors.
The pH-dependent insertion of pHLIP across membranes is proving to be a useful property for targeting acidic tissues or tumors and delivering drugs attached to its C-terminus. It also serves as a model peptide for studies of protein insertion into membranes, so further elucidation of the insertion mechanism of pHLIP and its features is desirable. We examine how the peptide perturbs a model phos...
متن کاملMicroRNAs that target RGS5
Objective(s):An earlier meta-analysis on gene expression data derived from four microarray, two cDNA library, and one SAGE experiment had identified RGS5 as one of only ten non-housekeeping genes that were reported to be expressed in human trabecular meshwork (TM) cells by all studies. RGS5 encodes regulator of G-protein signaling-5. The TM tissue is the route of aqueous fluid outflow, and is r...
متن کاملPeptidylprolyl Isomerases as In Vivo Carriers for Drugs That Target Various Intracellular Entities
Analyses of sequences and structures of the cyclosporine A (CsA)-binding proteins (cyclophilins) and the immunosuppressive macrolide FK506-binding proteins (FKBPs) have revealed that they exhibit peculiar spatial distributions of charges, their overall hydrophobicity indexes vary within a considerable level whereas their points isoelectric (pIs) are contained from 4 to 11. These two families of...
متن کاملSelf-assembled monolayers that transduce enzymatic activities to electrical signals.
The development of chemical methods to control the interactions of materials with proteins, enzymes, and cells is important to fundamental studies in chemical biology and to many applications in biotechnology. A wide range of strategies for immobilizing ligands to materials now allows excellent control over ligand–receptor interactions at an interface. An emerging theme in this field aims to ad...
متن کاملSelf-assembled nanoparticles as multifunctional drugs for anti-microbial therapies.
A self-assembled nanoparticle containing a photosensitizer and a Trojan-horse moiety (cholesterol), binds an anti-TB pro-drug and increases 1000-fold its activity against mycobacteria. These minimalist constructs will allow development of economically viable, efficient drug preparations for the treatment of drug-resistant TB infections.
