Journal Article
Pan, P., Curtis, F., Carroll, C., Medina, I., Rodrigeuz, R., Liotta, L., …McAlpine, S. (2006). Novel antibiotics: C-2 symmetrical macrocycles inhibiting Holliday junction DNA binding by E. coli RuvC. Bioorganic and Medicinal Chemistry, 14(14), 4731-4739. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bmc.2006.03.028

Holliday junctions (HJs) are formed as transient DNA intermediates during site-specific and homologous recombination. Both of these genetic exchange pathways are critical for normal DNA metabolism and repair. Trapping HJs leads to bacterial cell deat...

Lamina-associated polypeptide (LAP) 2 is a nonmembrane-bound LAP2 isoform that forms complexes with nucleoplasmic A-type lamins. In this study, we show that the overexpression of LAP2 in fibroblasts reduced proliferation and delayed entry into the ce...

Dissipation and maintenance of stable states in an enzymatic system: Analysis and simulation (2006)
Journal Article
Liu, J. (2006). Dissipation and maintenance of stable states in an enzymatic system: Analysis and simulation. Biophysical Chemistry, 120(3), 207-214. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bpc.2005.11.011

The constraint-based analysis has emerged as a useful tool for analysis of biochemical networks. An essential assumption for constraint-based analysis is the formation of a stable steady state. This work investigates dissipation and maintenance of st... Read More about Dissipation and maintenance of stable states in an enzymatic system: Analysis and simulation.

Differential oxidation of HLA-B2704 and HLA-B2705 in lymphoblastoid and transfected adherent cell lines (2006)
Journal Article

MHC class I molecules are predominantly involved in the presentation of antigens from viral proteins to CD8+ T cells of the immune system. However, MHC proteins can also be linked to autoimmune diseases, and the HLA-B27 allele is expressed by 95% of...
