Living radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and a fluorescent comonomer with 2-bromo-2-methylpropionic acid 3-azidopropyl ester and 2-bromo-2-methylhept-6-yn-3-one as initiators has...

Site-directed conjugation of "Clicked" glycopolymers to form glycoprotein mimics: Binding to mammalian lectin and induction of immunological function (2007)

Geng, J., Mantovani, G., Tao, L., Nicolas, J., Wallis, R., ...

Synthesis of well-defined neoglycopolymer-protein biohybrid materials and a preliminary study focused on their ability of binding mammalian lectins and inducing immunological function is reported....

Bioconjugation of biotinylated PAMAM dendrons to avidin (2007)

Tao, L., Geng, J., Xu, Y. J., Ladmiral, V., Mantovani, G., ...

The biotin-terminated PAMAM dendron has been synthesized and the asymmetric dendron used to modify the protein avidin via non-covalent bioconjugation.

A modular click approach to glycosylated polymeric beads: Design, synthesis and preliminary lectin, recognition studies (2007)

Tao, L., Mantovani, G., Geng, J., Nystrom, D., Haddleton, D. M.

Covalent immobilization of a range of carbohydrate derivatives onto polymeric resin beads is described. Copper-catalyzed Huisgen [2 + 3] cycloaddition (often termed click chemistry) was used to graft...

A homotetrameric kinesin-5, KLP61F, bundles microtubles and antagonizes Ncd in motility assays (2006)

Tao, L, Mogilner, A, Civelekogiu-Scholey, G, Wollman, R, Evans, J, Stahlberg, H, ...

Background: Mitosis depends upon the cooperative action of multiple microtubule (MT)-based motors. Among these, a kinesin-5, KLP61F, andthe kinesin-14, Ncd, are proposed to generate...

Mechanism of transport of IFT particles in C-elegans cilia by the concerted action of kinesin-II and OSM-3 motors (2006)

Pan, X Y, Ou, G S, Civelekoglu-Scholey, G, Blacque, O E, Endres, N F, Tao, L, ...

The assembly and function of cilia on Caenorhabditis elegans neurons depends on the action of two kinesin-2 motors, heterotrimeric kinesin-II and homodimeric OSM-3-kinesin, which cooperate to move...
