Effect of hydrophobicity and charge separation on the antifouling properties of surface-tethered zwitterionic peptides by Li, Chuanxi, Li, Minglun, Qi, Wei, Su, Rongxin, Yu, Jing

“…SFA force measurements shows that the presence of more spacers would increase the adhesion between the peptide monolayer and the modeling foulant lysozyme, especially for the hydrophobic spacers. MD simulations reveal that hydrophilic Ser spacers retain the hydrophilicity of the peptide monolayer and improve the antifouling performance, and Gly spacers give rise to more inter-chain crosslinks. …”

Development of Recombinant Dihydrolipoamide Dehydrogenase Subunit Vaccine against <i>Vibrio</i> Infection in Large Yellow Croaker by Xiaomeng Li, Yuanzhen Tan, Zheng Zhang, Yupeng Huang, Pengfei Mu, Zhengwei Cui, Xinhua Chen

“…In this study, we prepared recombinant <i>Vibrio</i> dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (rDLD) protein and investigated its potential as a candidate to be a subunit vaccine against <i>Vibrio</i>. The lysozyme activity and the rDLD-specific antibody level in sera of large yellow croakers immunized with rDLD were significantly higher than those in the control group, and the transcript levels of proinflammatory cytokines (<i>IL-6</i>, <i>IL-8</i>, <i>IL-1β</i>), <i>MHC IIα/β</i>, <i>CD40</i>, <i>CD8α</i>, <i>IL-4/13A</i>, and <i>IL-4/13B</i> were significantly up-regulated in the spleen and head kidney of large yellow croakers immunized with rDLD, suggesting that rDLD could induce both specific and nonspecific immune responses in this species. …”
