Journal ArticleDOI
Breaking a Couple: Disulfide Reducing Agents
Sinenhlanhla N. Mthembu,Anamika Sharma,Fernando Albericio,Fernando Albericio,Fernando Albericio,Beatriz G. de la Torre +5 more
TL;DR: Reducing methods for disulfide bonds are reviewed, taking into consideration the solubility of the substrates when selecting the appropriate reducing reagent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and NMR structure of P41Icf, a potent inhibitor of human cathepsin L
Cristina Chiva,Philippe Barthe,Anna Codina,Margarida Gairí,Franck Molina,Claude Granier,Martine Pugnière,Tatsuya Inui,Hideki Nishio,Yuji Nishiuchi,Terutoshi Kimura,Shumpei Sakakibara,Fernando Albericio,Ernest Giralt +13 more
TL;DR: P41icf behaves as a well-folded protein domain with a topology very close to the crystallographic cathepsin L-bound form, which plays a crucial role in the maturation of MHC class II molecules and antigen processing.
Journal ArticleDOI
“Clicking” Porphyrins to Magnetic Nanoparticles for Photodynamic Therapy
Merlyn Thandu,Valentina Rapozzi,Luigi E. Xodo,Fernando Albericio,Fernando Albericio,Clara Comuzzi,Silvia Cavalli,Silvia Cavalli +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that TAT-conjugated SPION-TPP nanoparticles are efficient nanodevices both for tracking drugs by means of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based techniques and for treating cancer cells through photodynamic therapy, thus functioning as promising theranostic nanoagents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbosilane Dendron–Peptide Nanoconjugates as Antimicrobial Agents
Jael Fernandez,Gerardo A. Acosta,Gerardo A. Acosta,Daniel Pulido,Marek Malý,José Luis Copa-Patiño,Juan Soliveri,Miriam Royo,Rafael Gómez,Fernando Albericio,Paula Ortega,F. Javier de la Mata +11 more
TL;DR: This work synthetized first- and second-generation cationic carbosilane dendrons with a maleimide molecule on their focal point, enabling their functionalization with three different AMPs, and finds an additive effect between first-generation dendron and AMP3 whose study reveals three interesting effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preparation of de novo globular proteins based on proline dendrimers.
TL;DR: A synthetic method for the preparation of protein-like globular dendrimers derived from a combination of proline, glycine and imidazolidin ring as branching unit is described, and CD data suggest conformational plasticity of branched peptides for PPI and PPII, and a stable well-defined secondary structure of prolines for PPII.
