Journal Article
Soultanas, P. (2005). The bacterial helicase-primase interaction: a common structural/functional module. Structure, 13(6), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.str.2005.04.006

The lack of a high-resolution structure for the bacterial helicase-primase complex and the fragmented structural information for the individual proteins have been hindering our detailed understanding of this crucial binary protein interaction. Two ne... Read More about The bacterial helicase-primase interaction: a common structural/functional module.

Discovery of antagonist peptides against bacterial helicase-primase interaction in B. stearothermophilus by reverse yeast three-hybrid (2005)
Journal Article
Gardiner, L., Coyle, B. J., Chan, W. C., & Soultanas, P. (2005). Discovery of antagonist peptides against bacterial helicase-primase interaction in B. stearothermophilus by reverse yeast three-hybrid. Cell Chemistry Biology, 12(5), 595-604. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chembiol.2005.04.007

Developing small-molecule antagonists against protein-protein interactions will provide powerful tools for mechanistic/functional studies and the discovery of new antibacterials. We have developed a reverse yeast three-hybrid approach that allows hig...

Chiral polymerisation and the RNA world (2005)
Journal Article
Wattis, J. A., & Coveney, P. V. (2005). Chiral polymerisation and the RNA world. International Journal of Astrobiology, 4(1), https://doi.org/10.1017/S1473550405002454

The purpose of this paper is to review two mathematical models: one for the formation of homochiral polymers from an originally chirally symmetric system; and the other, to show how, in an RNA-world scenario, RNA can simultaneously act both as inf...
