Influence of Amino Acid Substitutions in Capsid Proteins of Coxsackievirus B5 on Free Chlorine and Thermal Inactivation

Tamar Kohn, Aleksandar Antanasijevic, Kiruthika Kumar, Shotaro Torii

The sensitivity of enteroviruses to disinfectants varies among genetically similar variants and coincides with amino acid changes in capsid proteins, although the effect of individual substitutions remains unknown. Here, we employed reverse genetics to inv ...

Aptamer-Functionalized Interface Nanopores Enable Amino Acid-Specific Peptide Detection

Nako Nakatsuka, Xinyu Zhang, Haiying Hu

Single-molecule proteomics based on nanopore technology has made significant advances in recent years. However, to achieve nanopore sensing with single amino acid resolution, several bottlenecks must be tackled: controlling nanopore sizes with nanoscale pr ...

Dietary L-Glu sensing by enteroendocrine cells adjusts food intake via modulating gut PYY/NPF secretion

Bruno Lemaitre, Zongzhao Zhai

Amino acid availability is monitored by animals to adapt to their nutritional environment. Beyond gustatory receptors and systemic amino acid sensors, enteroendocrine cells (EECs) are believed to directly percept dietary amino acids and secrete regulatory ...

Interrupted Polonovski Strategy for the Synthesis of Functionalized Amino Acids and Peptides

Jérôme Waser, Christine Alice Jacqueline Marty, Emmanuelle Madeline Dominique Allouche

The alpha-functionalization of carbamate-protected hydroxylamine glycine derivatives, acting as imine surrogates via an interrupted Polonovski reaction, is described to access functionalized amino acid derivatives. The addition of C, N, O, and S nucleophil ...

Single-Molecule Peptide Identification Using Fluorescence Blinking Fingerprints

Pablo Rivera Fuentes, Salome Riccarda Püntener

The ability to identify peptides with single-molecule sensitivity would lead to next-generation proteomics methods for basic research and clinical applications. Existing single-molecule peptide sequencing methods can read some amino acid sequences, but the ...

Hypervalent Iodine: New Reagents and Functionalization of Peptides

Eliott Hugo Joran Le Du

Alkynes are found in a multitude of natural or synthetic bioactive compounds. In addition to the capacity of these chemical motifs to impact the physicochemical properties of a molecule of interest, the well-established reactivity of alkynes makes them ...

Ring-Opening Reactions of Aminocyclopropanes and Aminocyclobutanes

Mingming Wang

Nitrogen-containing compounds are an important class of molecules in medicinal chemistry, chemical biology, biochemistry, material sciences or environmental sciences. Organic nitrogen occurs in many forms, ranging from small building blocks such as urea, a ...

Solid-phase peptide synthesis on disulfide-linker resin followed by reductive release affords pure thiol-functionalized peptides

Christian Heinis, Peter Matei Frisius Pânzar, Alexander Lund Nielsen, Manuel Leonardo Merz, Ganesh Kumar Mothukuri, Zsolt Bognár

Thiol groups are suitable handles for site-selectively modifying, immobilizing or cyclizing individual peptides or entire peptide libraries. A limiting step in producing the thiol-functionalized peptides is the chromatographic purification, which is partic ...

Small peptide diversification through photoredox-catalyzed oxidative C-terminal modification

Jérôme Waser, Eliott Hugo Joran Le Du, Marion Marie-Agnès Garreau

A photoredox-catalyzed oxidative decarboxylative coupling of small peptides is reported, giving access to a variety of N,O-acetals. They were used as intermediates for the addition of phenols and indoles, leading to novel peptide scaffolds and bioconjugate ...

Amphiphilic Iodine(III) Reagents for the Lipophilization of Peptides in Water

Jérôme Waser, Durga Prasada Rao Hari, Romain Gaëtan Tessier, Abhaya Kumar Mishra

We report the functionalization of cysteine residues with lipophilic alkynes bearing a silyl group or an alkyl chain using amphiphilic ethynylbenziodoxolone reagents (EBXs). The reactions were carried out in buffer (pH 6 to 9), without organic co-solvent o ...
