Inhibition of anthrax protective antigen outside and inside the cell.
In the course of Bacillus anthracis infection, B. anthracis lethal factor (LF) and edema factor bind to a protective antigen (PA) associated with cellular receptors ANTXR1 (TEM8) or ANTXR2 (CMG2), followed by internalization of the complex via receptor-mediated endocytosis. A new group of potential antianthrax drugs, beta-cyclodextrins, has recently been described. A member of this group, per-6...
متن کاملIn Silico Prediction of B-Cell and T-Cell Epitopes of Protective Antigen of Bacillus anthracis in Development of Vaccines Against Anthrax
Protective antigen (PA), a subunit of anthrax toxin from Bacillus anthracis, is known as a dominant component in subunit vaccines in protection against anthrax. In order to avoid the side effects of live attenuated and killed organisms, the use of linear neutralizing epitopes of PA is recommended in order to design recombinant vaccines. The present study is aimed at determining the dominant epi...
متن کاملIn-Between Space, Dialectic of Inside and Outside in Architecture
Defining space by dividing it to inside and outside is one of human’s ways to recognize his positionin environment. Architecture is created to response to this need for inside/outside spaces. Design of inside and outsideSpaces and relation between them always has been one of necessities for definition and limitation of human livingspaces, but little attention to relation of this two spatial rea...
متن کاملThe energetics of organic synthesis inside and outside the cell.
Thermodynamic modelling of organic synthesis has largely been focused on deep-sea hydrothermal systems. When seawater mixes with hydrothermal fluids, redox gradients are established that serve as potential energy sources for the formation of organic compounds and biomolecules from inorganic starting materials. This energetic drive, which varies substantially depending on the type of host rock, ...
متن کاملRegulation of Hedgehog Signalling Inside and Outside the Cell
The hedgehog (Hh) signalling pathway is conserved throughout metazoans and plays an important regulatory role in both embryonic development and adult homeostasis. Many levels of regulation exist that control the release, reception, and interpretation of the hedgehog signal. The fatty nature of the Shh ligand means that it tends to associate tightly with the cell membrane, and yet it is known to...
