The development of tool compounds for the study of the tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) metabolic network perturbation is of interest especially in the case of oxidative and nitrosative stress genesis. A semisynthetic FRET sensor was engineered in order to study ...

Persistent cells, representing a small fraction of a bacterial population, are refractory to antibiotic therapy. It is a phenotypic transient state. The underlying mechanisms of persistence remain largely unknown, but even divergent hypotheses agree on a f ...

Bacterial cells behave as individuals despite being genetically identical and subject to the same environment. Although the underlying mechanisms of cellular individuality are not well understood, temporal variation of gene expression and protein levels in ...

PyMOL, a cross-platform molecular graphics tool, has been widely used for three-dimensional (3D) visualization of proteins, nucleic acids, small molecules, electron densities, surfaces, and trajectories. It is also capable of editing molecules, ray tracing ...

Here we report the discovery of a selective inhibitor of Aurora A, a key regulator of cell division and potential anticancer target. We used the atom category extended ligand overlap score (xLOS), a 3D ligand-based virtual screening method recently develop ...

Platinum-based cancer drugs, such as cisplatin, are highly effective chemotherapeutic agents used extensively for the treatment of solid tumors. However, their effectiveness is limited by drug resistance, which, in some cancers, has been associated with an ...

Enzyme inhibition by cytotoxic gold(III) compounds studied with combined mass spectrometry and biochemical assays ...

Sortases are transpeptidase enzymes that anchor surface proteins, including virulence factors, to the cell wall of Gram-positive bacteria, and they are potential targets for the development of anti-infective agents. While several large compound libraries w ...

Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor (MIF) is a multifunctional protein and a major mediator of innate immunity. The paramount importance of MIF in the pathogenesis of many inflammatory, infectious, auto-immune and oncogenic diseases led to its emergence ...

Non-replicating or dormant cells of Mycobacterium tuberculosis constitute a challenge to tuberculosis (TB) therapy because of their tolerance or phenotypic resistance to most drugs. Here, we propose a simple model for testing drugs against non-growing cell ...
