<i>shp-2</i> gene knockout upregulates CAR-driven cytotoxicity of YT NK cells by V. G. Subrakova, S. V. Kulemzin, T. N. Belovezhets, A. N. Chikaev, N. A. Chikaev, O. A. Koval, A. A. Gorchakov, A. V. Taranin

“…In Russia, cancer is the second leading cause of death following cardiovascular diseases. Adoptive transfer of NK cells is a promising approach to fight cancer; however, for their successful use in cancer treatment, it is necessary to ensure their robust accumulation at tumor foci, provide resistance to the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, and to engineer them with higher cytotoxic activity. …”

Fragmenstein: predicting protein–ligand structures of compounds derived from known crystallographic fragment hits using a strict conserved-binding–based methodology by Matteo P. Ferla, Rubén Sánchez-García, Rachael E. Skyner, Stefan Gahbauer, Jenny C. Taylor, Frank von Delft, Brian D. Marsden, Charlotte M. Deane

“…This approach works under the assumption of conserved binding: when a larger molecule is designed containing the initial fragment hit, the common substructure between the two will adopt the same binding mode. Fragmenstein either takes the atomic coordinates of ligands from a experimental fragment screen and combines the atoms together to produce a novel merged virtual compound, or uses them to predict the bound complex for a provided molecule. …”
