Li group published article on RSC Advances about a study of Lanthanide chelate-encapsulated polystyrene nanoparticles for rapid and quantitative immunochromatographic assay of procalcitonin

Lanthanide chelate-encapsulated polystyrene nanoparticles for rapid and quantitative immunochromatographic assay of procalcitonin Procalcitonin (PCT) is a potentially specific early marker of bloodstream infection and sepsis. In this work, we report, for the first time, the development of a fluorescence-based...

Li group published article on Bioconjugate Chemistry about a study of Investigation of Cellular Uptakes of the In-Tether Chiral-CenterInduced Helical Pentapeptides

Li group published article on Bioconjugate Chemistry about a study of Investigation of Cellular Uptakes of the In-Tether Chiral-CenterInduced Helical Pentapeptides We recently reported that a precisely positioned in-tether chiral center can modulate backbone peptides’ secondary structures, which provides an...

Li group published article on Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry about a study of An in-tether sulfoxide chiral center influences the biophysical properties of the N-capped peptides

Li group published article on Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry about a study of An in-tether sulfoxide chiral center influences the biophysical properties of the N-capped peptides. Thanks to their large binding interfaces, peptides are attractive ligands targeting protein-protein interactions compared...

Li group published article on Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry about a study of Switching substitution groups on the in-tether chiral centre influences backbone peptides’ permeability and target binding affinity

Different substitution groups on the in-tether chiral centre of chirality-induced helical peptides (CIH peptides) showed distinguishable effects on the peptides’ cellular uptakes and binding affinities with the estrogen receptor α(ER-α). This study proves that in-tether chiral centres are a...

Li group published article on Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry about a study of Improving cell penetration of helical peptides stabilized by N-terminal crosslinked aspartic acids

Cell penetration and nucleus translocation efficiency are important for the cellular activities of peptide therapeutics. For helical peptides stabilized by N-terminal crosslinked aspartic acid, correlations between their penetration efficiency/nucleus translocation and physicochemical properties were studied. An increase in hydrophobicity...
