Human single-chain variable fragment that specifically targets arthritic cartilage
OBJECTIVE To demonstrate that posttranslational modification of type II collagen (CII) by reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are known to be present in inflamed arthritic joints, can give rise to epitopes specific to damaged cartilage in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA) and to establish a proof of concept that antibodies specific to ROS-modified CII can be used to target ther...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
Computational design of a β-peptide that targets transmembrane helices.
The design of β-peptide foldamers targeting the transmembrane (TM) domains of complex natural membrane proteins has been a formidable challenge. A series of β-peptides was designed to stably insert in TM orientations in phospholipid bilayers. Their secondary structures and orientation in the phospholipid bilayer was characterized using biophysical methods. Computational methods were then devise...
متن کاملIn vitro nanobody discovery for integral membrane protein targets
Nanobodies (Nbs) or single-domain antibodies are among the smallest and most stable binder scaffolds known. In vitro display is a powerful antibody discovery technique used worldwide. We describe the first adaptation of in vitro mRNA/cDNA display for the rapid, automatable discovery of Nbs against desired targets, and use it to discover the first ever reported nanobody against the human full-le...
متن کاملRNAs everywhere: genome-wide annotation of structured RNAs.
Starting with the discovery of microRNAs and the advent of genome-wide transcriptomics, non-protein-coding transcripts have moved from a fringe topic to a central field research in molecular biology. In this contribution we review the state of the art of "computational RNomics", i.e., the bioinformatics approaches to genome-wide RNA annotation. Instead of rehashing results from recently publish...
