Curvature-dependent recognition of ethanolamine phospholipids by duramycin and cinnamycin.
Duramycin is a 19-amino-acid tetracyclic lantibiotic closely related to cinnamycin (Ro09-0198), which is known to bind phosphatidylethanolamine (PE). The lipid specificity of duramycin was not established. The present study indicates that both duramycin and cinnamycin exclusively bind to ethanolamine phospholipids (PE and ethanolamine plasmalogen). Model membrane study indicates that the bindin...
متن کامل99mTc-labeled duramycin as a novel phosphatidylethanolamine-binding molecular probe.
UNLABELLED With only 19 amino acids, duramycin is the smallest known polypeptide that has a defined 3-dimensional binding structure. Duramycin binds phosphatidylethanolamine (PtdE) at a 1:1 ratio with high affinity and exclusive specificity. As an abundant binding target, PtdE is a major phospholipid and accounts for about 20% of the phospholipid content in mammalian cellular membranes. PtdE is...
متن کاملEvaluation of radiolabeled streptokinase for thrombosis imaging
Introduction: Cardiovascular disease is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in developing and developed countries. Rapid diagnosis of the thrombosis can be an essential step in management of the stroke. Methods: In this work a recently developed radiolabeled streptokinase (STP) tracer was evaluated in an animal thrombotic model using SPECT imaging and biodis...
متن کاملTargeting telomerase with radiolabeled inhibitors
The expression of telomerase in approximately 85% of cancers and its absence in the majority of normal cells makes it an attractive target for cancer therapy. However the lag period between initiation of telomerase inhibition and growth arrest makes direct inhibition alone an insufficient method of treatment. However, telomerase inhibition has been shown to enhance cancer cell radiosensitivity....
متن کاملRadiolabeled Nanoparticles for Molecular Imaging
Molecular imaging (MI) comprises non-invasive monitoring of functional and spatiotemporal processes at molecular and cellular levels in humans and other living systems. In contrast to conventional diagnostic imaging, MI seeks to probe the molecular abnormalities that are the basis of disease rather than capture the images of the end effects of the molecular alterations. Imaging techniques such ...
