TL;DR: A surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor using an anti-OTA aptamer immobilized sensor chip was developed to measure ochratoxin A quantificationally through a straightforward direct binding assay, showing good analytical performances with limits of detection much lower than the maximum residue limit, as well as good reproducibility and stability.

TL;DR: The influences of peptide self‐assembly on the activity and mode of action, and some specific features it introduces to the AMPs, such as particular responsiveness, improved cell selectivity and stability and sustained release are discussed.

TL;DR: The developed SPR assay is a simple, fast and sensitive approach for the detection of residual AFBs in agricultural products and foodstuffs like vinegar, and shows high specificity towards AFB1 and AFB2, but hardly bound to other toxins with similar structures.

TL;DR: The RNA-binding protein fused in sarcoma (FUS) forms physiological granules and pathological fibrils, which facilitate RNA functions and cause neurodegenerative diseases, respectively, and Solid-state NMR spectroscopy and computational modeling implied that site-specific phosphorylation at Ser61 plays key roles in FUS assembly by disrupting both intra- and intermolecular interactions that maintain the amyloid core structure.

TL;DR: The TM domain, rather than the cytoplasmic domain, of GPIX plays an important role in expression and assembly of the GPIb–IX complex by interacting with its counterparts of G PIb.
