Virtual screening, identification and in vitro validation of small molecule GDP-mannose dehydrogenase inhibitors † (2023)
Journal Article

Upon undergoing mucoid conversion within the lungs of cystic fibrosis patients, the pathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa synthesises copious quantities of the virulence factor and exopolysaccharide alginate. The enzyme guanosine diphosphate ma... Read More about Virtual screening, identification and in vitro validation of small molecule GDP-mannose dehydrogenase inhibitors †.

Indolo[2,3- e ]benzazocines and indolo[2,3- f ]benzazonines and their copper( ii ) complexes as microtubule destabilizing agents † (2023)
Journal Article

A series of four indolo[2,3-e]benzazocines HL1–HL4 and two indolo[2,3-f]benzazonines HL5 and HL6, as well as their respective copper(ii) complexes 1–6, were synthesized and characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, ESI mass spectrometry, single c...

Heparin Inhibits Cellular Invasion by SARS-CoV-2: Structural Dependence of the Interaction of the Spike S1 Receptor-Binding Domain with Heparin. (2020)
Journal Article

The dependence of development and homeostasis in animals on the interaction of hundreds of extracellular regulatory proteins with the peri- and extracellular glycosaminoglycan heparan sulfate (HS) is exploited by many microbial pathogens as a means o...

Inhibition of the GDP-d-Mannose Dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa Using Targeted Sugar Nucleotide Probes (2020)
Journal Article

Sufferers of cystic fibrosis are at extremely high risk for contracting chronic lung infections. Over their lifetime, one bacterial strain in particular, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, becomes the dominant pathogen. Bacterial strains incur loss-of-function...
