MPGM: Scalable and Accurate Multiple Network Alignment

Matthias Grossglauser, Ehsan Kazemi

Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network alignment is a canonical operation to transfer biological knowledge among species. The alignment of PPI-networks has many applications, such as the prediction of protein function, detection of conserved network mot ...

Functional de novo Protein Design for Targeted Vaccines and Synthetic Biology Applications

Che Yang

Evolution has created, selected and evolved large repertoires of proteins that operate in various biological systems. Nowadays biotechnological needs are coming up orders of magnitude faster than proteins naturally evolve. The emergence of de novo protein ...

Chemical Biology Gateways to Mapping Location, Association, and Pathway Responsivity

Yimon Aye, Xuyu Liu

Here we discuss, how by applying chemical concepts to biological problems, methods have been developed to map spatiotemporal regulation of proteins and small-molecule modulation of proteome signaling responses. We outline why chemical-biology platforms are ...

Improving 3D MA-TIRF Reconstruction with Deconvolution and Background Estimation

Emmanuel Emilien Louis Soubies, Sébastien Schaub

Total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (TIRF) produces 2D images of the fluorescent activity integrated over a very thin layer adjacent to the glass coverslip. By varying the illumination angle (multi-angle TIRF), a stack of 2D images is acquire ...

Synergy and remarkable specificity of antimicrobial peptides in vivo using a systematic knockout approach

Bruno Lemaitre, Mark Austin Hanson, Anna Dostalova, Camilla Carla Alma Ceroni

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are host-encoded antibiotics that combat invading microorganisms. These short, cationic peptides have been implicated in many biological processes, primarily involving innate immunity. In vitro studies have shown AMPs kill bac ...

Novel Molecular Probes for Non-invasive Optical Imaging of Fatty Acid and Triglyceride Uptake in Living Animals

Grigory Karateev

Molecular imaging allows noninvasive visualization of biological processes in their native environment within living systems. It can give a better understanding of fundamental biology, help in identifying disease mechanisms and visualizing pathological tis ...

Ensuring robust and tissue-independent operation of implantable, ingestible, and injectable antennas

Denys Nikolayev

In-body bioelectronics relies on antennas to interface with external on- or off-body equipment. In this paper, we address the impedance detuning of in-body antennas caused by nondeterministic electromagnetic properties of biological tissues. The impedance ...

Analysis of cellular and drug action mechanisms in the malaria parasites using systems biology approaches

Anush Chiappino-Pepe

Malaria puts at risk of infection half of the world population and still kills around half a million people every year. The rapid and worrisome rise of drug-resistant malaria parasites hinders the treatment of malaria and calls for a global collaboration t ...
