Therapeutic Activity of an Engineered Synthetic Killer Antiidiotypic Antibody Fragment against Experimental Mucosal and Systemic Candidiasis

Polonelli, Luciano, Magliani, Walter, Conti, Stefania, Bracci, Luisa, Lozzi, Luisa, Neri, Paolo, ...

Peptides derived from the sequence of a single-chain, recombinant, antiidiotypic antibody (IdAb; KT-scFv) acting as a functional internal image of a microbicidal, wide-spectrum yeast killer toxin...

Biochemical filtering of a protein-protein docking simulation identifies the structure of a complex between a recombinant antibody fragment and alpha-bungarotoxin.

Bracci, Luisa, Pini, Alessandro, Bernini, Andrea, Lelli, Barbara, Ricci, Claudia, Scarselli, Maria, ...

The structural characterization of a complex of alpha-bungarotoxin with a recombinant antibody fragment that mimics the acetylcholine receptor was achieved using docking simulation procedures. To...

Antimicrobial Activity of Novel Dendrimeric Peptides Obtained by Phage Display Selection and Rational Modification

Pini, Alessandro, Giuliani, Andrea, Falciani, Chiara, Runci, Ylenia, Ricci, Claudia, Lelli, Barbara, ...

A large 10-mer phage peptide library was panned against whole Escherichia coli cells, and an antimicrobial peptide (QEKIRVRLSA) was selected. The peptide was synthesized in monomeric and dendrimeric...

Stable peptide inhibitors prevent binding of lethal and oedema factors to protective antigen and neutralize anthrax toxin in vivo

Pini, Alessandro, Runci, Ylenia, Falciani, Chiara, Lelli, Barbara, Brunetti, Jlenia, Pileri, Silvia, ...

The lethal and oedema toxins produced by Bacillus anthracis, the aetiological agent of anthrax, are made by association of protective antigen with lethal and oedema factors and play a major role in...

Probing the surface of a sweet protein: NMR study of MNEI with a paramagnetic probe

Niccolai, Neri, Spadaccini, Roberta, Scarselli, Maria, Bernini, Andrea, Crescenzi, Orlando, Spiga, Ottavia, ...

The design of safe sweeteners is very important for people who are affected by diabetes, hyperlipemia, and caries and other diseases that are linked to the consumption of sugars. Sweet proteins,...
