    Evolutionary trade-offs associated with loss of PmrB function in host-adapted Pseudomonas aeruginosa

    Pseudomonas aeruginosa colonises the upper airway of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, providing a reservoir of host-adapted genotypes that subsequently establish chronic lung infection. We previously experimentally...

    Discovery of novel S. aureus autolysins and molecular engineering to enhance bacteriolytic activity

    Staphylococcus aureus is a dangerous bacterial pathogen whose clinical impact has been amplified by the emergence and rapid spread of antibiotic resistance. In the search for more effecti...

    Computationally driven deletion of broadly distributed T cell epitopes in a biotherapeutic candidate

    Biotherapeutics are subject to immune surveillance within the body, and anti-biotherapeutic immune responses can compromise drug efficacy and patient safety. Initial development of targeted antidrug immune me...

    Optimization algorithms for functional deimmunization of therapeutic proteins

    To develop protein therapeutics from exogenous sources, it is necessary to mitigate the risks of eliciting an anti-biotherapeutic immune response. A key aspect of the response is the recognition and surface di...
