Abstract:
The concept of ‘non-specific’ binding, as it relates to studies of the binding of hormones to their receptors, is reviewed. It is concluded that the most widely used operational definition, namely binding that is not displaceable by an excess of unlabelled ligand, is often inaccurate, resulting either in overestimation of the number of high-affinity receptors and underestimation of the affinity of a given hormone for its receptor, or in a curvilinear Scatchard plot suggesting (artifactually) the presence of negative co-operativity or multiple classes of binding sites.

Abstract:
A longstanding challenge for accurate sensing of biomolecules such as proteins concerns specifically detecting a target analyte in a complex sample (e.g., food) without suffering from nonspecific binding or interactions from the target itself or other analytes present in the sample. Every sensor suffers from this fundamental drawback, which limits its sensitivity, specificity, and longevity. Existing efforts to improve signal-to-noise ratio involve introducing additional steps to reduce nonspecific binding, which increases the cost of the sensor.

Accurate determination of the in vitro kinetic parameters Km (Michaelis constant) and Ki (inhibition constant) is critical for the quantitative prediction of in vivo drug clearance and the magnitude of inhibitory drug interactions. A cause of inaccuracy in vitro arises from the assumption that all drug added to an incubation mixture is available for metabolism or inhibition. Many drugs bind non-specifically to the membrane of the in vitro enzyme source.

However, the technology suffers from the inability to differentiate between specific and non-specific binding. Due to this limitation, direct testing of bodily fluids using SAW sensors to accurately determine an analyte's concentration is difficult.

The CoSSDb contains ligand sub-structures as possible bioisosteres. extracted from PDB files, available in Protein Data Bank. Sub-structures were extracted through an algorithm, which utilizes the location of atoms in the 3D domain of the complex ligand & protein. It processes the relative positioning of atoms for demarcation of the influential part of the ligand, which interacts with macromolecule and provides potency to that ligand for binding with a specific binding pocket of the protein. The algorithm was used to extract sub-structures from the ligands co-crystallized with proteins involved in cancer. About 7721 x-ray crystallography PDB files were processed, and 654 non-redundant substructures were identified. These sub-structures will be useful during designing & optimization of novel ligands for selective targets. The database is freely accessible at ‘https://opticket49.wixsite.com/substructdb’.

Abstract:
AbstractSINEUP is a new class of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) which contain an inverted Short Interspersed Nuclear Element (SINE) B2 element (invSINEB2) necessary to specifically upregulate target gene translation. Originally identified in the mouseAS-Uchl1 (antisense Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal esterase L1) locus, natural SINEUP molecules are oriented head to head to their sense protein coding, target gene (Uchl1, in this example). Peculiarly, SINEUP is able to augment, in a specific and controlled way, the expression of the target protein, with no alteration of target mRNA levels. SINEUP is characterized by a modular structure with the Binding Domain (BD) providing specificity to the target transcript and an effector domain (ED)—containing the invSINEB2 element—able to promote the loading to the heavy polysomes of the target mRNA. Since the understanding of its modular structure in the endogenous AS-Uchl1 ncRNA, synthetic SINEUP molecules have been developed by creating a specific BD for the gene of interest and placing it upstream the invSINEB2 ED. Synthetic SINEUP is thus a novel molecular tool that potentially may be used for any industrial or biomedical application to enhance protein production, also as possible therapeutic strategy in haploinsufficiency-driven disorders.Here, we describe a detailed protocol to (1) design a specific BD directed to a gene of interest and (2) assemble and clone it with the ED to obtain a functional SINEUP molecule. Then, we provide guidelines to efficiently deliver SINEUP into mammalian cells and evaluate its ability to effectively upregulate target protein translation.

Abstract:
AbstractSome international investment agreements (IIAs) allow states that are parties to a treaty, but are not party to a specific dispute under that treaty, to intervene on a limited basis in order to make submissions on matters of treaty interpretation. Such mechanisms have proved to be highly valued by treaty parties, as evident by the many recently-concluded IIAs containing increasingly sophisticated non-disputing treaty party (NDTP) provisions. This chapter: (1) provides the background on NDTPs mechanisms, with a focus on the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) (the first-known IIA to contain such a provision); (2) examines the possible connection between tribunals failing to give due regard to treaty parties’ interpretive positions (again focusing on NAFTA) and the current backlash against investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS); and (3) analyses trends in recently-concluded IIAs. It is argued that the apparent lack of deference given by tribunals to NDTP submissions may be contributing to the current backlash against ISDS, based on two discernible trends: (1) an increase in the number of IIAs containing NDTPs provisions; and (2) provisions that now state that not only are treaty interpretations made by treaty parties binding on tribunals (such provisions also have their genesis in NAFTA), but that, in addition, tribunals’ decisions must be consistent with such agreed interpretations (the latter an innovation of a NAFTA party in 2003). Such trends are also visible at the institutional and multilateral levels, such as the revision of the Arbitration Rules of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) and the Mauritius Convention on Transparency in ISDS of the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL), and show no sign of slowing down.

Abstract:
AbstractForced migration – no matter how we wish to define it – has been high in the political agendas and debates across the world for several decades. Forced migrants become claimants of international protection, or ‘asylum claimants’, and then find themselves trapped in convoluted, constraining and highly politicised systems. Often accused of being ‘bogus’ asylum claimants, they are also regularly accused of abusing the hospitality of the host country, violating countries’ borders and territorial sovereignty, and simply seeking economic benefits (Ford 2009; UNHCR 2007). Conversely, asylum legal instruments have been repeatedly criticised for inadequately addressing the rights and needs of asylum claimants, therefore preventing those with legitimate claims from being granted protection. These debates have more recently been rehashed in the context of the negotiations behind the Global Compact for Safe Orderly and Regular Migration, a non-legally binding agreement negotiated under the aegis of the United Nations (UN) and endorsed by the UN General Assembly. In this atmosphere of permanent politicised and humanitarian ‘crisis’ (McAdam 2014), a group warranting specific attention is constituted by those asylum claimants presenting a claim based on their sexual orientation or gender identity (SOGI).

Abstract:
ADP is an important in vivo mediator of platelet aggregation. The identification and estimation of a finite number of receptor sites has been made difficult by the reversible nature of the action of ADP on platelets and because ADP can be degraded by enzymes on the platelet surface. Analogues of ADP have therefore been commonly used to study the ADP receptor. We investigated the validity of using 5'-p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyl adenosine (FSBA), an affinity analogue of ADP that inhibits ADP-induced aggregation, for studying the ADP receptor on intact washed platelets.

However, the molecular mechanisms for cell interactions with this material are not known. Angiogenesis is mediated via interactions between integrins, which are expressed on the surface of activated endothelial cells (ECs), and extracellular matrix proteins. Amon

Integrated pest management in modern crop protection may combine chemical and biological insecticides, particularly due to the risks to the environment and livestock arising from the massive use of non-selective chemicals. Thus, there is a need for safer alternatives, which target insects more specifically. Scorpions produce anti-insect selective polypeptide toxins that are biodegradable and non-toxic to warm-blooded animals. Therefore, integration of these substances into insect pest control strategies is of major importance. Moreover, clarification of the molecular basis of this selectivity

Abstract:
Voltage-gated sodium channels (Navs) play a pivotal role in excitability and are a prime target of insecticides like pyrethroids. Yet, these insecticides are non-specific due to conservation of Navs in animals, raising risks to the environment and humans. Moreover, insecticide overuse leads to resistance buildup among insect pests, which increases misuse and risks. This sad reality demands novel, more selective, insect killers whose alternative use would avoid or reduce this pressure. As highly selective insect toxins exist in venomous animals, why not exploit this gift of nature and harness t
