Journal ArticleDOI

Local unfolding of the HSP27 monomer regulates chaperone activity.

TL;DR: While HSP27 assembles into oligomers, it is shown that the monomers formed upon reduction are highly active chaperones in vitro, but are susceptible to self-aggregation.
Journal ArticleDOI

NMR approaches in structure-based lead discovery: recent developments and new frontiers for targeting multi-protein complexes.

TL;DR: Current state-of-the-art in the portfolio of available NMR-based experiments that are used to aid early-stage lead discovery of multi-protein complexes as targets and how NMR spectroscopy allows studying of interactions within the high molecular weight assemblies that make up a vast fraction of the yet untargeted proteome are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Is NMR Fragment Screening Fine-Tuned to Assess Druggability of Protein-Protein Interactions?

TL;DR: The requirements for ligand-based NMR techniques to detect rule-of-three compliant fragments that form part of known high-affinity inhibitors of the PPI between the von Hippel–Lindau protein and the alpha subunit of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (pVHL:HIF-1α) are investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interaction of PiB-derivative metal complexes with beta-amyloid peptides: selective recognition of the aggregated forms.

TL;DR: Time-dependent circular dichroism, dynamic light scattering, and TEM investigations of the secondary structure and of the aggregation of Aβ1-40 in the presence of increasing amounts of the metal complexes provide coherent data showing that, despite their structural similarity, the two complexes affect Aβ fibril formation distinctly.
