Published in 2021 at "Journal of Molecular Structure"

DOI: 10.1016/j.molstruc.2021.131183

Abstract: Abstract An efficient, environmentally friendly, one-pot three-component synthesis of a series of 2H-chromene-based imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines had been designed and were synthesized. This protocol was developed by the reaction of substituted 2H-chromene aldehydes and 2-aminopyridine in a… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-11329-3

Abstract: Prokaryotic proteins must be deformylated before the removal of their first methionine. Peptide deformylase (PDF) is indispensable and guarantees this mechanism. Recent metagenomics studies revealed new idiosyncratic PDF forms as the most abundant family of… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Anti-Cancer Drugs"

DOI: 10.1097/cad.0000000000001444

Abstract: Human peptide deformylase (hsPDF) has been found overexpressed in many cancer cells and its inhibitors exhibit antitumor activity. Studies were performed to validate that hsPDF is a good antitumor target. The inhibitory effect of PDF64… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Current pharmaceutical design"

DOI: 10.2174/1381612828666220922100556

Abstract: BACKGROUND In bacteria, peptide deformylase (PDF), a metalloenzyme, removes N-formyl methionine from a nascent protein, which is a critical step in the protein maturation process. The enzyme is ubiquitously present in bacteria and possesses therapeutic… read more here.
