Theoretical Elucidation of the Origin for Assembly of the DAP12 Dimer with Only One NKG2C in the Lipid Membrane
In this work, we have investigated
in details the origin of the
assembly of the DAP12 dimer with only one NKG2C in the activating
immunoreceptor complex from thew two aspects of electronic properties
and dynamic structures by performing density functional theory (DFT)
calculations and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. In the DFT calculations,
we studied the aggregation ability of the NKG2CTM with
the DAP12TM dimer and the DAP12TM–DAP12TM–NKG2CTM complex by analyzing the electrostatic
potentials and frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs), and in the MD simulations
we mainly investigated the dynamic structures of the DAP12TM–DAP12TM–NKG2CTM complex and
its mutants, as well as the tetramer complex consisting of two DAP12TM and two NKG2CTM helixes without any restriction.
Through the studies of the electrostatic potential, the FMOs, and
the dynamic structures, we have provided reasonable explanations to
some extent for the experimental observation that only one NKG2C can
associate with the DAP12 homodimer. The present theoretical results
are expected to give valuable information for further studying the
assembly between receptors and signaling subunits

Polyfluoroalkyl Tag Decoration Enables Significantly Enhanced Tumor Penetration Ability of a PTK7 Targeting Aptamer
Aptamers are widely used molecular
recognition tools in targeted
therapy, but their ability to effectively penetrate deep into solid
tumors remains a significant challenge, leading to suboptimal treatment
efficacy. Here, we developed a polyfluoroalkyl (PFA) decoration strategy
to enhance aptamer recognition, cell internalization, and solid tumor
penetration. Our results indicate that PFA with around 11 fluorine
atoms significantly improves aptamer internalization both in vitro and in vivo settings. However,
we also observed that the use of PFA tags containing 19 and 23 fluorine
atoms on aptamers resulted in nonspecific cell anchoring in control
cell lines, affecting the specificity of aptamers. Overall, we found
that using a chemical modification strategy could enhance the deep
tumor penetration ability of aptamers and validate their effectiveness in vivo. This approach has significant practical applications
in targeted drug delivery for cancer treatment
