Oxytocin – the prosocial molecule?: Intranasal oxytocin effects on social approach behavior, social cognition, volitional and emotional ambivalence in healthy human beings
(2015-10-30)
Oxytocin (OXT) is a highly conserved neuropeptide, regarding both its chemical structure and its functionality. It has been traced back at least 700 million years. OXT’s fundamental role lies in reproduction and parenting ...
Proteomische Funktionsanalyse humanbiologischer Systeme mittels chemisch modifizierter Proteine
(2016-04-18)
Das humane Proteom unterliegt gegenüber dem eher statischen Genom einem kontinuierlichen Auf- und Abbau. Diese Dynamik zeigt sich durch ein mehrschichtiges Muster an Protein-Protein Interaktionen.

Aptamer-mediated transactivation of transcription utilizing CRISPR/Cas9 and a photoreceptor
(2021-12-16)
In synthetic biology, spatio-temporal control of molecular functions is an essential tool for the investigation and manipulation of cellular processes. The usage of light enables a reversible non-invasive trigger, that ...
Die biologische Funktion der N1-2´O-Methylierung eukaryotischer mRNA durch die Methyltransferase CMTr1
(2021-05-14)
Eukaryoten modifizieren das 5´-Ende ihrer mRNA mit einem invertierten N7-methyliertem Guanosin (m7G). Diese Cap0 genannte Struktur wird in höheren Eukaryoten durch die Methyltransferase CMTr1 weiter modifiziert: CMTr1 ...
Chemoinformatics-Driven Approaches for Kinase Drug Discovery
(2020-01-07)
Given their importance for the majority of cell physiology processes, protein kinases are among the most extensively studied protein targets in drug discovery. Inappropriate regulation of their basal levels results in ...
Evolution of the Activity Cliff Concept and Practical Implications for Compound Design
(2021-07-22)
Entering the “big data” era, a number of different research areas have witnessed an enormous increase in data at an exponential rate. For drug discovery, various publicly available protein structure and compound bioactivity ...
OptoRiboGenetics: Post-transcriptional control of gene expression by light
(2021-08-26)
Gene expression is tightly regulated in mammalian cells at the post transcriptional level and its precise manipulation has proven to be valuable for protein overexpression and gene therapy. Implementation of light-responsive ......

The endophytic fungus Stemphylium globuliferum – secondary metabolites and biological activities
(2018-01-22)
Fungi are a tremendous source of pharmaceutically significant compounds, e.g. the life saving immunosuppressant drug mycophenolic acid. The current project focused on the investigation of the mold fungus Stemphylium ......
Investigation of Multipotent Neural Progenitor Cell to Oligodendrocyte Differentiation including the Transcriptional Activator Protein Pur-alpha by Quantitative Proteomics
(2019-02-26)
Oligodendrocytes are neuroglial cells, localized in the white matter of the central nervous system. They develop from neural stem cells (NSCs), which produce, among others, migrating and proliferating oligodendrocyte ...
Funktionelle Untersuchungen des ABC-Transporters ABCG2
(2021-10-15)
Das Phänomen der Multidrug Resistance (MDR) stellt ein bedeutsames Problem bei der Behandlung von Tumoren mit Chemotherapeutika dar. Die ABC-Transporter ABCB1, ABCC1 und ABCG2 sind an der Entstehung der MDR beteiligt. ...
