Journal Article
Casella, B. M., Farmer, J. P., Nesheva, D. N., Williams, H. E., Charlton, S. J., Holliday, N. D., …Mistry, S. N. (2023). Design, Synthesis, and Application of Fluorescent Ligands Targeting the Intracellular Allosteric Binding Site of the CXC Chemokine Receptor 2. Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jmedchem.3c00849

The inhibition of CXC chemokine receptor 2 (CXCR2), a key inflammatory mediator, is a potential strategy in the treatment of several pulmonary diseases and cancers. The complexity of endogenous chemokine interaction with the orthosteric binding site...

Linear Binary Classifier to Predict Bacterial Biofilm Formation on Polyacrylates (2023)
Journal Article
Contreas, L., Hook, A. L., Winkler, D. A., Figueredo, G., Williams, P., Laughton, C. A., …Williams, P. M. (2023). Linear Binary Classifier to Predict Bacterial Biofilm Formation on Polyacrylates. ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces, 15(11), 14155-14163. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsami.2c23182

Bacterial infections are increasingly problematic due to the rise of antimicrobial resistance. Consequently, the rational design of materials naturally resistant to biofilm formation is an important strategy for preventing medical device-associated i...

Development of fluorescent peptide G protein-coupled receptor activation biosensors for NanoBRET characterization of intracellular allosteric modulators (2022)
Journal Article
Farmer, J. P., Mistry, S. N., Laughton, C. A., & Holliday, N. D. (2022). Development of fluorescent peptide G protein-coupled receptor activation biosensors for NanoBRET characterization of intracellular allosteric modulators. FASEB Journal, 36(11), Article e22576. https://doi.org/10.1096/fj.202201024R

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are widely therapeutically targeted, and recent advances in allosteric modulator development at these receptors offer further potential for exploitation. Intracellular allosteric modulators (IAM) represent a class...

The fitness burden imposed by synthesising quorum sensing signals (2016)
Journal Article
Ruparell, A., Dubern, J., Ortori, C. A., Harrison, F., Halliday, N., Emtage, A., …Hardie, K. R. (2016). The fitness burden imposed by synthesising quorum sensing signals. Scientific Reports, 6, Article 33101. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep33101

It is now well established that bacterial populations utilize cell-to-cell signaling (quorum-sensing, QS) to control the production of public goods and other co-operative behaviours. Evolutionary theory predicts that both the cost of signal productio... Read More about The fitness burden imposed by synthesising quorum sensing signals.
