(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2020)The development of an advanced and efficient drug delivery system with significant improvement in its efficacy and enhanced therapeutic value is one of the critical challenges in modern medicinal biology. The integration ... -
Homology modeling in the time of collective and artificial intelligence
(Elsevier Science BV, 2020)Homology modeling is a method for building protein 3D structures using protein primary sequence and utilizing prior knowledge gained from structural similarities with other proteins. The homology modeling process is done ... -
Magnetocaloric-Responsive Hydrogel Nanoarchitectonics for Pyroptosis-Relay-Immunotherapy to Suppress Post-Operation Tumor Recurrence and Metastasis
(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2024)Although a widely used option in contemporary anticancer treatment, surgery still causes serious issues, including post-operation recurrence and the development of metastases. Immunotherapy, often following surgical resection ... -
Metallothionein-3 is a multifunctional driver that modulates the development of sorafenib-resistant phenotype in hepatocellular carcinoma cells
(BioMed Central Ltd., 2024)Background & aims Metallothionein-3 (hMT3) is a structurally unique member of the metallothioneins family of low-mass cysteine-rich proteins. hMT3 has poorly characterized functions, and its importance for hepatocellular ... -
Preparation and Optimisation of Cross-Linked Enzyme Aggregates Using Native Isolate White Rot Fungi Trametes versicolor and Fomes fomentarius for the Decolourisation of Synthetic Dyes
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2018)The key to obtaining an optimum performance of an enzyme is often a question of devising a suitable enzyme and optimisation of conditions for its immobilization. In this study, laccases from the native isolates of white ... -
Reduced graphene oxide-based nanometal-composite containing copper and silver nanoparticles protect tomato and pepper against Xanthomonas euvesicatoria infection
(Springer International Publishing AG, 2022)Xanthomonas euvesicatoria (Xe) is of the genera Xanthomonas, which causes a bacterial spot disease that affects tomato and pepper plants, resulting in significant economic losses. Commonly used bactericides lead to pathogen ... -
Rotamer Dynamics: Analysis of Rotamers in Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Proteins
(Biophysical Society, 2019)Given by χ torsional angles, rotamers describe the side-chain conformations of amino acid residues in a protein based on the rotational isomers (hence the word rotamer). Constructed rotamer libraries, based on either protein ... -
