Deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) are important regulators of the posttranslational protein ubiquitination system. Mammalian genomes encode about 100 different DUBs, which can be grouped into seven different classes. Members of other DUB classes are found in pathogenic bacteria, which use them

The anti-Parkinsonian, irreversible, selective monoamine oxidase (MAO)-B inhibitors, selegiline (deprenyl, (R)-N-methyl-N-(1-phenylpropan-2-yl) prop-2-yn-1-amine) and rasagiline (Azilect, N-propargyl-1(R)-aminoindan), have been proven to possess neuroprotective/neurorestorative activities in cell cultures and animal models of neurodegenerative diseases. Structure-activity studies provide evidence that neuroprotection is associated
A new, heterogeneous, 4 A molecular sieve-supported copper(ii) catalyst was developed and was used successfully in the A(3) coupling of alkynes, aldehydes and amines under simple reaction conditions.
Transglutaminases (TGases) catalyse the transamidation of glutamine residues with primary amines. Herein we report the first FRET-based activity assay for the direct detection of the ligation (transamidation) reaction mediated by tissue TGase (TG2). This novel assay was then used in
Chemical communications (Cambridge, England), 47(4), 1151-1153 (2010-12-15)
Highly functionalized water soluble core cross-linked star (CCS) polymers having degradable cores and hierarchical functionalities spanning from the peripheral groups along the arms to the core have been synthesized entirely from amino acid building blocks. The core-isolated moieties were shown
