Open AccessA synthetic lipopeptide targeting top-priority multidrug-resistant Gram-negative pathogens
The emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative pathogens is an urgent global medical challenge. The old polymyxin lipopeptide antibiotics (polymyxin B and colistin) are often the only therapeutic opt...

A secondary mode of action of polymyxins against Gram-negative bacteria involves the inhibition of NADH-quinone oxidoreductase activity
Polymyxin B and colistin were examined for their ability to inhibit the type II NADH-quinone oxidoreductases (NDH-2) of three species of Gram-negative bacteria. Polymyxin B and colistin inhibited the NDH-2 act...

Synthesis of “Difficult” Fluorescence Quenched Substrates of Granzyme C
The synthesis of fluorescence quenched peptide substrates of granzyme C is presented. These peptides which incorporate some unusual amino acids and have “difficult sequence” elements, in some cases could not b...

Selective identification and quantitative analysis of methionine containing peptides by charge derivatization and tandem mass spectrometry
To enable the development of a tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) based methodology for selective protein identification and differential quantitative analysis, a novel derivatization strategy is proposed, based...
