Comparative hydrodynamic and nanoscale imaging study on the interactions of teicoplanin-A2 and bovine submaxillary mucin as a model ocular mucin (2023)
Journal Article
Chun, T., Pattem, J., Gillis, R. B., Dinu, V. T., Yakubov, G. E., Corfield, A. P., & Harding, S. E. (2023). Comparative hydrodynamic and nanoscale imaging study on the interactions of teicoplanin-A2 and bovine submaxillary mucin as a model ocular mucin. Scientific Reports, 13, Article 11367. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-023-38036-6

Glycopeptide antibiotics are regularly used in ophthalmology to treat infections of Gram-positive bacteria. Aggregative interactions of antibiotics with mucins however can lead to long exposure and increases the risk of resistant species. This study...

Self-association of the glycopeptide antibiotic teicoplanin A2 in aqueous solution studied by molecular hydrodynamics (2023)
Journal Article
Chun, T., Pattem, J., Gillis, R. B., Dinu, V. T., Yakubov, G. E., Corfield, A. P., & Harding, S. E. (2023). Self-association of the glycopeptide antibiotic teicoplanin A2 in aqueous solution studied by molecular hydrodynamics. Scientific Reports, 13(1), Article 1969. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-023-28740-8

The natural glycopeptide antibiotic teicoplanin is used for the treatment of serious Gram-positive related bacterial infections and can be administered intravenously, intramuscularly, topically (ocular infections), or orally. It has also been conside... Read More about Self-association of the glycopeptide antibiotic teicoplanin A2 in aqueous solution studied by molecular hydrodynamics.

Root angle is controlled by EGT1in cereal crops employing anantigravitropic mechanism (2022)
Journal Article
Fusi, R., Rosignoli, S., Lou, H., Sangiorgi, G., Bovina, R., Pattem, J. K., …Salvi, S. (2022). Root angle is controlled by EGT1in cereal crops employing anantigravitropic mechanism. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences,

Root angle in crops represents a key trait for efficient capture of soil resources. Root angle is determined by competing gravitropic versus anti-gravitropic offset (AGO) mechanisms. Here we report a new root angle regulatory gene termed ENHANCED GRA... Read More about Root angle is controlled by EGT1in cereal crops employing anantigravitropic mechanism.

Flavour compounds affect protein structure: The effect of methyl anthranilate on bovine serum albumin conformation (2022)
Journal Article
Dinu, V., Borah, P. K., Muleya, M., Scott, D. J., Lithgo, R., Pattem, J., …Fisk, I. D. (2022). Flavour compounds affect protein structure: The effect of methyl anthranilate on bovine serum albumin conformation. Food Chemistry, 388, Article 133013. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.2022.133013

This study aims to understand possible effects of flavour compounds on the structure and conformation of endogenous proteins. Using methyl anthranilate (a grape flavour compound added to drinks, confectionery, and vape-liquids) and bovine serum album...
