Restoring bacterial sensitivity to aminoglycosides antibiotics

Bacterial resistance to aminoglycoside antibiotics is a major public health problem. The WHO (World Health organization) has highlighted the urgent need to find new treatments to fight multidrug resistance MDR bacteria, as actual drugs are less effective or inactive. This research project aims to develop new chemical compounds to restore bacterial sensitivity to antibiotics currently […]

Exploring the boundaries of serial electron diffraction

Serial electron diffraction (serial-ED) crystallography is an emerging structural biology method whereby data are collected from protein nanocrystals using a sub-micron-sized electron beam. The method is set to lead the future of nanocrystallography, given its cost-effectiveness and the small amount of sample required. Combining the expertise of the Colletier and Miller teams, the project will […]

Cholinergic bioactives from cereals

Cholinergic compounds can act as both pharmaceuticals and bioactive compounds in functional foods. Alpha-Glycerylphosphoryl choline (alpha-GPC) is a known cholinergic compound that is used in Korea as a prescription pharmaceutical for treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. However, development as a functional food and related researches in Korea is limited. Recently, the team led by Dr. Martin […]

Development of natural antimicrobial topical product from traditional Philippine medicinal plants

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) occurs when antibiotic drugs and products stops working, making it difficult to treat infections and diseases which could lead to further health complications and death. Therefore, development of antibiotic products is needed to control the increasing cases of AMR. Medicinal plants are a great source of natural antibiotic compounds to make antibiotic […]

An Omnigenic Hypothesis to Predict Human Gene Regulatory Networks

The project mainly focuses on the cellular behaviour and ways to predict human gene interactions. Using a method called Proteinfragment Complementation Assays, we are able to compute the biochemical networks in living cells. The results of this project will provide a novel and highly efficient way to establish hypotheses about the organization of cellular regulatory […]

Cloning, expression and characterization of a novel gene involved in Amaryllidaceae alkaloid metabolism

Amaryllidaceae alkaloids (AAs) are a group of specialized metabolites found predominantly in the Amaryllidaceae plant family. Approximately 650 naturally occurring AAs have been identified, many of which possess a variety of potent biological and pharmacological properties. In contrast to the large body of knowledge on the pharmacological and phytochemical aspects of AAs, their molecular and […]

High Performance Lipid Nanoparticle Production System

Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are a form of new dosage form for delivering drugs, including anticancer agents and vaccines. A highly controlled production system is needed to produce high quality LNPs, and the existing production systems suffer from a few drawbacks, such as lack of variable control and automated functions. Dionamix will employ their technologies and […]

Elaboration d’un sytème polymerique d’encapsulation d’ARN messager

Le projet consiste à synthétiser un nouveau système d’encapsulation d’ARN messager. L’objectif est donc de développer un matériau polymère plus stable et moins coûteux pour son utilisation dans des applications comme les vaccins à ARN messager. Grâce à ce nouveau système nous espérerons rendre les traitements plus efficace lors de leur insertion dans le corps […]
