Journal ArticleDOI
A fluorescent natural product for ultra sensitive detection of proteins in one-dimensional and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis
James A. Mackintosh,Hung Yoon Choi,Soo Han Bae,Duncan A. Veal,Philip J. L. Bell,Belinda C. Ferrari,Derek Van Dyk,Nicole M. Verrills,Young Ki Paik,Peter Karuso +9 more
TL;DR: The limit of detection in one‐dimensional gels stained with Lightning Fast protein gel stain is less than 100 pg of protein, rivaling the current limits of matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization‐mass spectrometry (MALDI‐MS).
Journal ArticleDOI
Epicocconone, A Novel Fluorescent Compound from the Fungus Epicoccum nigrum
Phillip J. L Bell,Peter Karuso +1 more
TL;DR: A new class of natural fluorescent probes based on a polyketide skeleton isolated from the fungus Epicoccum nigrum with a high molar absorbtivity and a long Stokes' shift that will be useful in biotechnological applications is presented.
Book ChapterDOI
Chemical Ecology of the Nudibranchs
TL;DR: The activities in this field are reviewed for the first time with particular emphasis on the defense mechanisms of nudibranchs and the chemical ecology of nudIBranchs in all stages of their life cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid screening of the antimicrobial activity of extracts and natural products
TL;DR: A spectrophotometric method has been developed for the rapid measurement of the antimicrobial activity of natural products, including crude extracts or pure materials based on the measurement of non-specific esterase activity using fluorescein diacetate hydrolysis in broth cultures of microbes after they have been treated with test compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quality, not quantity: the role of natural products and chemical proteomics in modern drug discovery.
Andrew M. Piggott,Peter Karuso +1 more
TL;DR: A system-wide approach to identifying new drugable targets and their small molecule ligands will help unblock the pharmaceutical product pipelines by speeding the process of target and lead identification.
