Peptoids, a class of peptide mimetics, have emerged as promising anti-infective agents against a range of bacterial infections. Herein we present the first study of the antiparasitic and specifically the anti-leishmanial properties of linear peptoids...

The utility of yeast as a tool for cell-based, target-directed high-throughput screening (2014)
Journal Article
Norcliffe, J., Alvarez-Ruiz, E., Martin-Plaza, J., Steel, P., & Denny, P. (2014). The utility of yeast as a tool for cell-based, target-directed high-throughput screening. Parasitology, 141(1), 8-16. https://doi.org/10.1017/s0031182013000425

Many Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) have recently been subject of increased focus, particularly with relation to high-throughput screening (HTS) initiatives. These vital endeavours largely rely of two approaches, in vitro target-directed screenin... Read More about The utility of yeast as a tool for cell-based, target-directed high-throughput screening.
