Anaerobic alkane degradation via methanogenesis has been intensively studied under mesophilic and thermophilic conditions. While there is a paucity of information on the ability and composition of anaerobic alkane-degrading microbial communities under low temperature conditions. In this study, we investigated

To facilitate selective drug delivery to hepsin (Hpn)-expressing cancer cells, the RIPL peptide (IPLVVPLRRRRRRRRC; 16mer; 2.1 kDa) was synthesized as a novel cell penetrating/homing peptide (CPHP) and conjugated to a liposomal carrier. RIPL peptide-conjugated liposomes (RIPL-Lipo) were prepared by conjugating
