Studies in synthetic immuno-chemistry

Advances in synthetic peptide immuno-regulatory epitopes

Synthetic peptide immuno-regulatory epitopes (SPIRE) represent a new class of therapeutics for allergen immunotherapy that offer the potential to suppress the IgE-mediated allergic disease process through induction of T-cell tolerance. These synthetic T-cell-tolerizing peptides have been designed to induce immunologic tolerance via binding to MHC class II molecules on antigen presenting cells, ...

Boroxine Chemistry: from Fundamental Studies to Applications in Supramolecular and Synthetic Organic Chemistry

Organoboroxine chemistry has recently received much attention because the boroxine formation reaction is a powerful tool for the construction of organized architectures. The reversible nature of this reaction may result in new materials that possess unprecedented levels of structural organization due to facilitation through self-correction, and switchable properties can be imparted by the react...

Synthetic biology for synthetic chemistry.

The richness and versatility of biological systems make them ideally suited to solve some of the world's most significant challenges, such as converting cheap, renewable resources into energy-rich molecules; producing high-quality, inexpensive drugs to fight disease; and remediating polluted sites. Over the years, significant strides have been made in engineering microorganisms to produce fuels...
