Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic-sequence comparison of two unrelated isolates of the human gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori

TL;DR: The overall genomic organization, gene order and predicted proteomes (sets of proteins encoded by the genomes) of the two strains are quite similar, and it is found that H. pylori was believed to exhibit a large degree of genomic and allelic diversity, but this is the first such genomic comparison.
Journal ArticleDOI

EZH2 inhibition as a therapeutic strategy for lymphoma with EZH2-activating mutations.

TL;DR: GSK126, a potent, highly selective, S-adenosyl-methionine-competitive, small-molecule inhibitor of EZH2 methyltransferase activity, decreases global H3K27me3 levels and reactivates silenced PRC2 target genes and markedly inhibits the growth of EzH2 mutant DLBCL xenografts in mice are demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrolysis of biological peptides by human angiotensin-converting enzyme-related carboxypeptidase.

TL;DR: The physiological role of ACE2 is elucidated, and its catalytic activity was characterized, and a consensus sequence of: Pro-X (1–3 residues)-Pro-Hydrophobic, where hydrolysis occurs between proline and the hydrophobic amino acid is revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Residence time of receptor-ligand complexes and its effect on biological function.

TL;DR: The impact of residence time on the optimization of potential ligands as drugs for human medicine is described and its significance to biological function is described.
