A series of novel peptide N-caps was designed with an emphasis on ease of synthesis and an abundance of hydrogen bond acceptors. Different scaffolds based on sugars, cyclic hydrocarbons, and amino acids are developed with a variety of hydrogen bond accepto ...
Peptide based and peptide hybrid materials represent two interesting and challenging classes of biomaterials. Both classes consist of and contain, respectively, one or more polypeptide blocks, endowing the resulting polymers with enhanced self-assembly pro ...
An organometallic 4d transition metal complex [CpRhCl2]2, together with commercially available dyes, was used to construct indicator displacement assays (IDAs) for the detection of peptides, amino acids, and nucleotides. The combination of the CpRh compl ...
Phage display is widely used for the selection of target-specific peptide sequences. Presentation of phage peptides on a multivalent platform can be used to (partially) restore the binding affinity. Here, we present a detailed analysis of the effects of va ...
This study presents a new method, Köhler Theory Analysis (KTA), to infer the molar volume and solubility of organic aerosol constituents. The method is based on measurements of surface tension, chemical composition, and CCN activity coupled with Köhler the ...
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 ...
We present mechanistic studies aimed at improving the understanding of the product ion formation rules in electron capture dissociation (ECD) of peptides and proteins in Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry. In particular, we attempt ...
Here we describe a phage strategy for the selection of ligands based on bicyclic or linear peptides attached covalently to an organic core. We designed peptide repertoires with three reactive cysteine residues, each spaced apart by several random amino aci ...
The genetic encoding of polypeptides with biological display systems enables the facile generation and screening of very large combinatorial libraries of molecules. By post-translationally modifying the encoded polypeptides, chemically and structurally mor ...
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 ...
