Engineering an Autonomous VH Domain to modulate intracellular pathways and to Interrogate the eIF4F Complex
Approaches have been devised to increase the discovery rate of intrabodies but often these yield results that aren’t functional in cells. Here the authors engineer and optimise an autonomous and disulphide-free human VH domain for intracellular expression, and they identify several VH domain binders against eIF4E.
ReadDiethyl phthalate (DEP) perturbs nitrogen metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Phthalate esters (PAE) are compounds derived by double esterification of phthalic acid (1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid). Since the Industrial Revolution, low molecular weight phthalates such as dimethyl phthalate (DMP) and diethyl phthalate (DEP) have been used in pharmaceutical and manufacturing industries to confer flexibility to products used in personal care, infant care and medical devices1.
