Journal ArticleDOI
Differential targeting of prosurvival Bcl-2 proteins by their BH3-only ligands allows complementary apoptotic function
Lin Chen,Simon N. Willis,Andrew H. Wei,Brian J. Smith,Jamie I. Fletcher,Mark G. Hinds,Peter M. Colman,Catherine L. Day,Jerry M. Adams,David C.S. Huang +9 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that apoptosis relies on selective interactions between particular subsets of these proteins and that it should be feasible to discover BH3-mimetic drugs that inactivate specific prosurvival targets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rational design of potent sialidase-based inhibitors of influenza virus replication.

Colman,Joseph N. Varghese,D. Michael Ryan,Jacqueline M. Woods,Richard C. Bethell,Vanessa J. Hotham,Janet M. Cameron,Charles R. Penn +18 more
TL;DR: Two potent inhibitors based on the crystal structure of influenza virus sialidase have been designed and provide an example of the power of rational, computer-assisted drug design, indicating significant progress in the development of a new therapeutic or prophylactic treatment for influenza infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conformations of immunoglobulin hypervariable regions.
Cyrus Chothia,Cyrus Chothia,Arthur M. Lesk,Anna Tramontano,Michael Levitt,Michael Levitt,Sandra J. Smith-Gill,Gillian M. Air,Steven Sheriff,Steven Sheriff,Eduardo A. Padlan,David R. Davies,W.R. Tulip,Peter M. Colman,Silvia Spinelli,Pedro M. Alzari,Roberto J. Poljak +16 more
TL;DR: There is a small repertoire of main-chain conformations for at least five of the six hypervariable regions of antibodies, and that the particular conformation adopted is determined by a few key conserved residues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shape Complementarity at Protein/Protein Interfaces
TL;DR: It is shown using Sc that antibody/antigen interfaces as a whole exhibit poorer shape complementarity than is observed in other systems involving protein/protein interactions.
