Modelling peptide–protein complexes: docking, simulations and machine learning

Arup Mondal, Liwei Chang, Alberto Pérez · 1 Jan 2022

Peptides mediate up to 40% of protein interactions, their high specificity and ability to bind in places where small molecules cannot make them potential drug candidates. However, predicting peptide-protein complexes remains more challenging than protein-protein or protein-small molecule interactions, in part due to the high flexibility peptides have. In this review, we look at the…

QTY Code-designed Water-soluble Fc-fusion Cytokine Receptors Bind to their Respective Ligands

Shilei Hao, David Jin, Shuguang Zhang et al. · 1 Jan 2020

Abstract Cytokine release syndrome (CRS), or ‘cytokine storm’, is the leading side effect during chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T therapy that is potentially life-threatening. It also plays a critical role in viral infections such as Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Therefore, efficient removal of excessive cytokines is essential for treatment. We previously reported a novel protein modification…

Anomalous Salt Dependence Reveals an Interplay of Attractive and Repulsive Electrostatic Interactions in α-synuclein Fibril Formation

Ricardo Gaspar, Mikael Lund, Emma Sparr et al. · 1 Jan 2020

α-Synuclein (α-syn) is an intrinsically disordered protein with a highly asymmetric charge distribution, whose aggregation is linked to Parkinson's disease. The effect of ionic strength was investigated at mildly acidic pH (5.5) in the presence of catalytic surfaces in the form of α-syn seeds or anionic lipid vesicles using thioflavin T fluorescence measurements. Similar trends…

Towards design of drugs and delivery systems with the Martini coarse-grained model

Lisbeth R. Kjølbye, Gilberto P. Pereira, Alessio Bartocci et al. · 1 Jan 2022

Coarse-grained (CG) modelling with the Martini force field has come of age. By combining a variety of bead types and sizes with a new mapping approach, the newest version of the model is able to accurately simulate large biomolecular complexes at millisecond timescales. In this perspective, we discuss possible applications of the Martini 3 model…

Spraying Small Water Droplets Acts as a Bacteriocide

Maria T. Dulay, Jae Kyoo Lee, Alison C. Mody et al. · 1 Jan 2020

Abstract Disinfectants are important for arresting the spread of pathogens in the environment. Frequently used disinfectants are often incompatible with certain surfaces, expensive and can produce hazardous by-products. We report that micron-sized water droplets can act as an effective disinfectant, which were formed by spraying pure bulk water with coaxial nebulizing airflow. Spraying for 20…

QRB Discovery template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the QRB Discovery format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the QRB Discovery template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Cambridge University Press format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does QRB Discovery use?
QRB Discovery uses Numbered references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: [1] A. Smith, B. Jones, and C. Lee, A representative article title, QRB Discovery 12 (2023) 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to QRB Discovery?
No. DocuGuru generates the null LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Cambridge University Press-ready QRB Discovery document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the QRB Discovery template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the QRB Discovery format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
Who publishes QRB Discovery?
QRB Discovery is a multidisciplinary journal published by Cambridge University Press. DocuGuru's QRB Discovery template matches Cambridge University Press's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready QRB Discovery PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official QRB Discovery template (the null class) that is ready to submit to Cambridge University Press, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the QRB Discovery template cost?
You can start writing in the QRB Discovery template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready QRB Discovery PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
