Mapping the interaction between eukaryotic initiation factor 4A (eIF4A) and the inhibitor hippuristanol using carbene footprinting and mass spectrometry (2021)
Journal Article
Lloyd, J. R., Hogan, A., Paschalis, V., Bellamy-Carter, J., Bottley, A., Seymour, G. B., …Oldham, N. J. (2021). Mapping the interaction between eukaryotic initiation factor 4A (eIF4A) and the inhibitor hippuristanol using carbene footprinting and mass spectrometry. Proteomics, 21(21-22), Article 2000288. https://doi.org/10.1002/pmic.202000288

Protein-ligand interactions are central to protein activity and cell functionality. Improved knowledge of these relationships greatly benefits our understanding of key biological processes and aids in rational drug design towards the treatment of cli...

Accessing low-oxidation state taxanes: is taxadiene-4(5)-epoxide on the taxol biosynthetic pathway? (2016)
Journal Article
Barton, N. A., Marsh, B. J., Lewis, W., Narraidoo, N., Seymour, G. B., Fray, R. G., & Hayes, C. J. (in press). Accessing low-oxidation state taxanes: is taxadiene-4(5)-epoxide on the taxol biosynthetic pathway?. Chemical Science, 7(5), https://doi.org/10.1039/c5sc03463a

We have shown for the first time that taxadiene (3) can be epoxidised in a regio- and diastereoselective manner to provide taxadiene-4(5)-epoxide (12) as a single diastereoisomer, and that this epoxide can be rearranged to give taxa-4(20),11(12)-dien...
