A detailed characterization of the time scales and mechanisms by which RNA molecules change their folding structure upon binding of metabolites or during catalysis is important for the understanding of the different biological functions of RNA. The folding ...
Hydrophobins self assemble into amphipathic films at hydrophobic-hydrophilic interfaces. These proteins are involved in a broad range of processes in fungal development. We have studied the conformational changes that accompany the self-assembly of the hyd ...
Despite of considerable progress in the research at the interface of Chemistry, Biology and Medicine, neurodegenerative diseases affect more and more seriously our ageing population and remain a real therapeutic challenge for researcher. Nevertheless, adva ...
Aspects of conformational transitions, folding, and misfolding of peptides and proteins have recently taken center stage in various domains at the interface of chemistry, biology, and medicine because of their impact on protein misfolding diseases. Due to ...
The design, synthesis, and base-pairing properties of bicyclo[3.2.1]amide-DNA (bca-DNA), a novel phosphodiester-based DNA analog, are reported. This analog consists of a conformationally constrained backbone entity, which emulates a B-DNA geometry, to whic ...
The authors report compelling evidence for the formation of a fourth type of helical secondary structure of a beta-peptide in MeOH, and this phenomenon occurs if each amino acid has a hydroxy group in the 2-position. 2D-NMR expts. of terminally-protected b ...
Photostructurable epoxy based resists, like SU-8, are soft materials with a Young's Modulus around 4 GPa, which makes them particularly suitable as base material to fabricate Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) probes for non-destructive analysis of fragile samp ...
The elastic properties of rod-coil diblock copolymer poly(styrene-d8)-b-poly(γ-benzyl L-glutamate) (PSd-b-PBLG) rod-coil diblock copolymer solutions were investigated using small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). PBLG is known to undergo a transition from a ...
Intramol. O,N-acyl migration reactions were used as structural switch (S-elements) from a depsipeptide bond contg., unfolded state (Soff) to an all-amide, native states (Son). Chem. or enzymically triggered acyl migrations allowed for the controlled induct ...
