We recently discovered that wheat gluten could be formed into a tough, plasticlike substance when thiol-terminated, star-branched molecules are incorporated directly into the protein structure. This discovery offers the exciting possibility of developing b ...
The selective and reversible insertion of pseudo-proline (PsiPro) Systems in cyclosporin C (CsC) featuring different C(2) substituents at the oxazolidine ring and its impact on the conformational and biological properties is described. The presence of a 5- ...
DivIVA from Bacillus subtilis is a bifunctional protein with distinct roles in cell division and sporulation. During vegetative growth, DivIVA regulates the activity of the MinCD complex, thus helping to direct cell division to the correct mid-cell positio ...
During protein folding a polypeptide chain has to form specific intrachain interactions starting from an ensemble of unfolded conformation. Thus, intrachain diffusion in unfolded polypeptide chains can be regarded as an elementary step in protein folding, ...
Anachelin, a complex secondary metabolite isolated from Anabaena cylindrica, possesses an unusual structure combining polyketide, peptide and alkaloid building blocks. This natural product was postulated to act as siderophore with catecholate and salicylat ...
Cyclosporin is a cyclic undecapeptide useful as drug for organ transplantation due to its immunosuppressive properties. Ten years ago, an anti-viral activity was discovered, incompatible with immunosuppression. These two activities originate in the presenc ...
Proteins have a complex free-energy landscape because of their rich topol. and the nature of their nonbonded interaction potential. This has important consequences because the roughness of the landscape affects the ease with which a chain folds and also de ...
This paper describes the synthesis and supramolecular organization of two novel hybrid diblock copolymers based on poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and peptide sequences inspired by the coiled coil protein folding motif. The self-organization of the diblock cop ...
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 ...
High signal-to-noise Fourier transform IR (FTIR) spectra of the 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) receptor (5-HT3R) and the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) were obtained by microscope FTIR spectroscopy using micrometer-sized, fully hydrated protein ...
