Kinked- sheets are short peptide motifs that appear as distortions in strands and often mediate formation of reversible amyloid fibrils in prion-like proteins. Standard methods for assigning secondary structures cannot distinguish these esoteric mo...
Structural data provides important information on the proteins' function. Recent development of advanced machine learning and artificial intelligence tools, such as AlphaFold, have led to an explosion of predicted protein structures. However, many of...

In the past, several methods have been developed for predicting conformational B-cell epitopes in antigens that are not specific to any host. Our primary analysis of antibody-antigen complexes indicated a need to develop host-specific B-cell epitopes...
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) represent a powerful therapeutic approach for the treatment of a range of cancers. They merge the toxicity of known chemical agents with the specificity of monoclonal antibodies, thereby maximizing efficacy while minim...
11β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1) has been shown to play an important role in the treatment of impaired glucose tolerance, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and obesity and is a promising drug target. In this study, we built a gated ...
Polypeptide blood group antigens, many of which are created by single exofacial amino acid substitutions, have varying immunogenicities. Why some amino acid substitutions are more immunogenic than others is little understood. Using AlphaFold2, an art...
