From Sequence to Dynamics to Function: Computational Design of Allostery and Ligand Selectivity in G-Protein Coupled Receptors
The phenomenon of allostery, a general property in proteins that has been heralded as "the second secret of life" remains elusive to our understanding and even more challenging to incorporate into protein design. One example of allosteric proteins with gre ...
EPFL2024HaloTag-Based Tools for Live-Cell Imaging and Elucidation of Organellar Redox Biology
Redox homeostasis is a key factor in maintaining cellular function and health. The main determinant of the intracellular redox potential is ubiquitous glutathione (GSH) together with its oxidized dimer (GSSG). Importantly, both redox equilibrium and GSH ho ...
EPFL2024Development of tools and methods for protein identification: From single molecules to in vivo applications.
As the fundamental machinery orchestrating cellular functions, proteins influence the state of every cell profoundly. As cells exhibit significant variations from one to another, analyzing the proteome on a single-cell level is imperative to unravel their ...
EPFL2024Engineering novel protein interactions with therapeutic potential using deep learning-guided surface design
Proteins are foundational biomolecules of life playing a crucial role in a myriad of biological processes. Their function often requires interplay with other biomolecules, including proteins themselves. Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are essential for ...
EPFL2024De novo designed proteins: a study in engineering novel folds and functions
Alexandra Krina Van Hall-Beauvais
Proteins control nearly every facet of life on a molecular level. Proteins are formed from linear strings of amino acids, which fold into three-dimensional structures that can enact functions. Evolution has created highly efficient proteins in diverse fold ...
EPFL2023Computer-implemented design of peptide:receptor signaling complexes for enhanced chemotaxis
Patrick Daniel Barth, Robert Everett Jefferson
The present invention relates to a computer-implemented method for engineering the interaction between a protein and a cognate peptide that are capable of forming a molecular complex, wherein the method comprises (a) preparing in silico a library of test p ...
2023Towards automating de novo protein design for novel functionalities: controlling protein folds and protein-protein interactions
The sheer size of the protein sequence space is massive: a protein of 100 residues can have 20^100 possible sequence combinations; and knowing that this exceeds the number of atoms in the universe, the chance of randomly discovering a stable new sequence w ...
EPFL2022Azide-Containing Hypervalent Iodine Reagents for Biomolecules Functionalization
Raphaël Michel Henri Simonet-Davin
The goal of my PhD was the development of a new method for unselective surface labeling, not substrate-specific, that would give access to direct visualization of any surface interactions.In order to achieve this challenging goal, we wanted to develop a ge ...
EPFL2022Reprogramming G Protein-Coupled Receptor Structure, Function And Signaling By Computational Design
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are 7-transmembrane alpha-helical integral membrane proteins on which cells heavily rely to receive information regarding their external environment. These receptors are able to transfer information to intracellular down ...
EPFL2021Computational design of highly signaling active membrane receptors through de novo solvent-mediated allosteric networks
Jian Wang, Patrick Daniel Barth
Protein catalysis and allostery require the atomic-level orchestration and motion of residues, ligand, solvent and protein effector molecules, but the ability to design protein activity through precise protein-solvent cooperative interactions has not been ...
