Raman Spectroscopy Unveils Potential Serum Biomarkers for Bone Marrow Failure Diseases

Narangerel Altangerel, Zhenhuan Yi, and Marlan Scully of Texas A&M University recently used TRIP to analyze eight protein–ligand systems. Spectroscopy recently spoke to these three researchers about their findings and what the implications are for high-throughput drug screening. 

Using Thermostable Raman Interaction Profiling (TRIP) For Protein Binding Screening 

Bruno Pagano, full Professor of Physical Chemistry at the University of Naples Federico II (Italy), and his team have turned to UV resonance Raman (UVRR) spectroscopy to better understand these interactions. Spectroscopy spoke to Prof. Pagano about his work and the potential of UVRR spectroscopy as a valuable tool for studying G-quadruplex structures in biologically relevant conditions.
