Five bis-benzamidines were screened towards murine magnesium deficiency-dependent audiogenic seizures, unravelling two compounds with efficacious doses 50 (ED(50)) less than 10mg/kg. They were also screened against maximal electroshock and subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole-induced seizures, and explored for superoxide -scavenging activity. 1,2-Ethane bis-1-amino-4-benzamidine

The potential development of resistance to Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) cotton and surging of non-targeted insects is a major risk in the durability of Bt plant technology. Midgut proteinases are involved in Bt activation and degradation. Proteinase inhibitors may be used
Quinols have been developed as a class of potential anti-cancer compounds. They are thought to act as double Michael acceptors, forming two covalent bonds to their target protein(s). Quinols have also been shown to have activity against the parasite Trypanosoma
The use of gas phase additives to stabilize noncovalent protein complexes in electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ES-MS) is demonstrated for two protein-ligand interactions, an enzyme-small molecule inhibitor complex, and a protein-disaccharide complex. It is shown that the introduction of gas

Part of the latest SAMPL challenge was to predict how a small fragment library of 500 commercially available compounds would bind to a protein target. In order to assess the modellers' work, a reasonably comprehensive set of data was collected
