Improved cancer diagnostics and therapeutics will require targeting ligands with relatively high specificity for the surface of malignant cells compared to normal cells. However, the...
We used the Difference Evolutionary Trace (difference-ET) and residue-swapping to uncover two distinct sets of specificity-determining sequence positions in D2 dopamine receptors and 5HT2AR serotonin...
Several types of cancers, such as ovarian, breast, lung and others, have been linked to the dysfunction of a particular family of cellular receptors (called...
There is a major ongoing research effort to identify oligonucleotide and protein biomarkers of disease. While the use of phospholipid biomarkers are less common, there...
