Radical Stability Directs Electron Capture and Transfer Dissociation of Beta-Amino Acids in Peptides

Yury Tsybin, Hisham Ben Hamidane, Aleksey Vorobyev

We report on the characteristics of the radical-ion-driven dissociation of a diverse array of beta-amino acids incorporated into alpha-peptides, as probed by tandem electron-capture and electron-transfer dissociation (ECD/ETD) mass spectrometry. The report ...

Conformation of Polyalanine and Polyglycine Dications in the Gas Phase: Insight from Ion Mobility Spectrometry and Replica-Exchange Molecular Dynamics

Yury Tsybin, Aleksey Vorobyev, Rodolphe Antoine

The conformation of model Arg(Ala)(4)X(Ala)(4)Lys+2H and Arg(Gly)(4)X(Gly)(4)Lys+2H peptides has been systematically investigated as a function of the central amino acid X through a combined experimental and theoretical approach. Mass spectrome ...

Long-lived States in Multiple-Spin Systems

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Paul Romeo Vasos, Riddhiman Sarkar, Puneet Ahuja

Long-lived spin states are excited in molecules featuring more than two isolated coupled spins, including amino acids. The figure shows the exponential recovery with the longest time-constant in aspartic acid, T1max=5.842±0.004 s, and of the decay of the l ...

Tailoring hydrogel degradation and drug release via neighboring amino acid-controlled ester hydrolysis

Matthias Lütolf, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Yun Suk Jo, Jay Gantz

We present a versatile scheme to rationally modulate the hydrolysis rate of ester bonds in hydrophilic polymer networks via adjacent charged amino acids. As soluble model systems, two cysteine-bearing oligopeptides containing either positively charged argi ...

Ammonium Chloride Promoted Three-Component Synthesis of 5-Iminooxazoline and Its Subsequent Transformation to Macrocyclodepsipeptide

Jieping Zhu

A three-component reaction of an alpha ,alpha -disubstituted alpha -isocyanoacetamide, an aldehyde and an amino alc. afforded 5-iminooxazolines, which, upon sapon., cyclized under acidic conditions to provide the macrocyclodepsipeptides in good overall yie ...

Non-Cytotoxic, Bifunctional EuIII and TbIII Luminescent Macrocyclic Complexes for Luminescence Resonant Energy- Transfer Experiments

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Anne-Sophie Chauvin, Caroline Vandevyver

A new macrocyclic ligand,

L^3

, has been synthesised, based on the cyclen framework grafted with three phenacyl light-harvesting groups and a C5-alkyl chain bearing a carboxylic acid function as a potential linker for biological material. Acidity constant ...

Synthesis, structural characterization and applications of hyperbranched polymers based on L-lysine

Markus Scholl

L-lysine is an essential a-amino acid and a necessary building block for all proteins in the body. As an essential amino acid, L-lysine is not synthesized by humans or animals. Industrially produced L-lysine has therefore a big market as food additive, e.g ...

ESAT-6 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis dissociates from its putative chaperone CFP-10 under acidic conditions and exhibits membrane-lysing activity

Stewart Cole

The 6-kDa early secreted antigenic target ESAT-6 and the 10-kDa culture filtrate protein CFP-10 of Mycobacterium tuberculosis are secreted by the ESX-1 system into the host cell and thereby contribute to pathogenicity. Although different studies performed ...

Palladium-Catalyzed, Modular Synthesis of Highly Functionalized Indoles and Tryptophans by Direct Annulation of Substituted o-Haloanilines and Aldehydes

Jieping Zhu

One-pot synthesis of indoles by a palladium-catalyzed annulation of o-haloanilines and aldehydes has been developed. Coupling of o-iodoaniline with aldehyde is realized under mild ligandless conditions [Pd(OAc)2, DABCO, DMF, 85 DegC], whereas X-Phos is fou ...

Importance of the structure of vancomycin binding pocket in designing compounds active against vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE)

Jieping Zhu

16-Membered meta,para-cyclophanes mimicking the vancomycin binding pocket (D-O-E ring) are designed and synthesized. The structural features of these biaryl ether contg. macrocycles are: (a) the deletion of the carboxyl group of vancomycin's central amino ...
