A structural biology community assessment of AlphaFold2 applications.
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2022-11-01)Most proteins fold into 3D structures that determine how they function and orchestrate the biological processes of the cell. Recent developments in computational methods for protein structure predictions have reached the ... -
Structural investigation of NTC and of the coupling between splicing and polyadenylation
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2022-10-31)This PhD thesis is composed of two parts. The first and foremost part describes the reconstitution, isolation and analysis of human complexes involved in the coupling between splicing and polyadenylation, with a special ... -
Structure of the human RAD17-RFC clamp loader and 9-1-1 checkpoint clamp bound to a dsDNA-ssDNA junction.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2022-08-12)The RAD9-RAD1-HUS1 (9-1-1) clamp forms one half of the DNA damage checkpoint system that signals the presence of substantial regions of single-stranded DNA arising from replication fork collapse or resection of DNA double ... -
Structure-based design of selective and potent G quadruplex-mediated telomerase inhibitors
(2001-04-24)The telomerase enzyme is a potential therapeutic target in many human cancers. A series of potent inhibitors has been designed by computer modeling, which exploit the unique structural features of quadruplex DNA, These ... -
Structure-guided design of purine-based probes for selective Nek2 inhibition
(2017)Nek2 (NIMA-related kinase 2) is a cell cycle-dependent serine/threonine protein kinase that regulates centrosome separation at the onset of mitosis. Overexpression of Nek2 is common in human cancers and suppression can ... -
Study of Plasmodium falciparum DHHC palmitoyl transferases identifies a role for PfDHHC9 in gametocytogenesis.
(WILEY, 2016-11-01)Palmitoylation is the post-translational reversible addition of the acyl moiety, palmitate, to cysteine residues of proteins and is involved in regulating protein trafficking, localization, stability and function. The ... -
Sub-minute Phosphoregulation of Cell Cycle Systems during Plasmodium Gamete Formation.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-11-14)The transmission of malaria parasites to mosquitoes relies on the rapid induction of sexual reproduction upon their ingestion into a blood meal. Haploid female and male gametocytes become activated and emerge from their ... -
Sunitinib in the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma.
(2016-12)Sunitinib is an oral multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that targets various receptors, including vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFRs). Sunitinib received approval in 2006 and became a standard ... -
Systematic Discovery of Short Linear Motifs Decodes Calcineurin Phosphatase Signaling.
(CELL PRESS, 2020-07-16)Short linear motifs (SLiMs) drive dynamic protein-protein interactions essential for signaling, but sequence degeneracy and low binding affinities make them difficult to identify. We harnessed unbiased systematic approaches ... -
Systematic review of therapeutic nipple-sparing <i>versus</i> skin-sparing mastectomy.
(2019-04)Background The use of nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) is increasing, despite unproven oncological safety in the therapeutic setting. The aim of this systematic review was to determine the safety and efficacy of NSM compared ... -
Systemic biomarkers of immune response in locally-advanced human papillomavirus malignancies treated with radical chemoradiation
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2024-02-19)Human papillomavirus (HPV)-driven malignancies exhibit viral oncogenic proteins that act as tumour-specific antigens, making them suitable candidates for monitoring the adaptive immune response during treatment. Chemoradiation ... -
Systemic Radiotherapy of Bone Metastases With Radionuclides.
(2021-02)Treatments of bone metastases using radionuclides are now well established in oncology. It is also a field that continues to develop. This article reviews the evidence base that led to the approval of strontium-89 and ... -
Systemic Therapy for Hereditary Breast Cancers.
(W B SAUNDERS CO-ELSEVIER INC, 2023-02-01)Approximately 5% to 10% of all breast cancers are hereditary; many of which are caused by pathogenic variants in genes required for homologous recombination, including BRCA1 and BRCA2. Here we discuss systemic treatment ... -
T-cell Prolymphocytic Leukemia.
(W B SAUNDERS CO-ELSEVIER INC, 2017-04-01)T-cell prolymphocytic leukemia (T-PLL) is a rare and aggressive T-cell malignancy. T-PLL can be distinguished from other lymphoid diseases by the evaluation and integration of clinical features, morphology, immunophenotyping, ... -
