Abstract:
Peptides are a class of organic substances consisting of two or more amino acid residues connected to each other by peptide bonds —C(O)NH—. Peptides were first mentioned in 1900 by the German organic chemist G. E. Fischer. He assumed that peptides consist of a chain of amino acids connected by a certain type of bond. In 1902, he was able to prove the presence of a peptide bond, and by 1905 he had developed a general method that allows synthesizing peptides in the laboratory. Friedrich Engels said the most succinctly about proteins: «Life is a way of existence of protein bodies...». It follows

The combination of ultrasound and microbubbles (USMB) has been applied to enhance drug permeability across tissue barriers. Most studies focused on only one physicochemical aspect (i.e., molecular weight of the delivered molecule). Using an in vitro epithelial (MDCK II) cell barrier, we examined the effects of USMB on the permeability of five molecules varying in molecular weight (182 Da to 20 kDa) and hydrophilicity (LogD at pH 7.4 from 1.5 to highly hydrophilic). Treatment of cells with USMB at increasing ultrasound pressures did not have a significant effect on the permeability of small mol

Abstract:
The receptor tyrosine kinase RET (rearranged during transfection) plays a vital role in various cell signaling pathways and is a critical factor in the development of the nervous system. Abnormal activation of the RET kinase can lead to several cancers, including thyroid cancer and non-small-cell lung cancer. However, most RET kinase inhibitors are multi-kinase inhibitors. Therefore, the development of an effective RET-specific inhibitor continues to present a significant challenge. To address this issue, we built a molecular generation model based on fragment-based drug design (FBDD) and a lo

Abstract:
Molecular dynamic simulations are used for investigating various aspects of biological processes. Such simulations often require intensive computer power; therefore several solutions were developed to minimize the computer power needed, including the usage of elevated temperatures. Yet, such simulations are still not commonly used by the wide scientific community of chemists and biochemists. For about two years now, the molecular simulations suite GROMACS enables conducting simulations using implicit solvent models to further decrease runtimes. In order to quantify the saving in computer power

Molecules with tuneable properties are well known for their applications in the material and bio-medical fields; nevertheless, the structural and functional tunability makes them more significant in diverse applications.

The rationale behind selecting these two key functional groups is their diverse applications, e.g., DTC having applications for therapeutics, pesticides, and vulcanizing agents, and triazole having applications
