Proteolytic activation, oligomerization, and membrane insertion are three steps that precede channel formation by the bacterial toxin aerolysin. Using attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and hydrogen-deuterium exc ...
The RFX DNA binding domain is a novel motif that has been conserved in a growing number of dimeric DNA-binding proteins, having diverse regulatory functions, in eukaryotic organisms ranging from yeasts to humans. To characterize this novel motif, we have p ...
A review with 37 refs. In the present review, various attempts to apply synthetic tools for inducing native-like structural features in peptides in order to bypass the folding problem are described. Besides well-established methods for the nucleation and s ...
Mol. dynamics simulation studies on the folding of beta-peptides H-beta3-HVal-beta3-HAla-beta3-HLeu-(S,S)-beta3-HAla(alphaMe)-beta3-HVal-beta3-HAla-beta3-HLeu-OH and H-beta2-HVal-beta3-HAla-beta2-HLeu-beta3-HVal-beta2-HAla-beta3-HLeu-OH were carried out. D ...
With 71 refs., this review presents various aspects of beta-peptides (oligomers of beta-amino acids): synthesis, structure detn. by NMR and CD, thermal stability properties, helical and beta-pleated secondary structures, peptide folding, biol. and pharmaco ...
Enantiomerically pure beta-amino acid derivs. with the side-chains of Ala, Val, and Leu in the 2- or 3-position (β2- and β3-amino acids, resp.), as well as with substituents in both the 2- and 3-positions (β2,3-amino acids, of like-configuration) were prep ...
A serotonin 5-HT3 receptor was functionally expressed to high levels and on a large scale in mammalian cells with the Semliki Forest virus system. Conditions were optimized to maximize detergent solubilization of the receptor, while preserving ligand bindi ...
A pore-forming peptide is implicated in the potent cytolytic activity of pathogenic Entamoeba histolytica. Using NH2-terminal sequence information of this peptide, the corresponding cDNA was isolated. The cDNA-deduced amino acid sequence revealed a putativ ...
Aerolysin is a channel-forming protein secreted as a protoxin by Aeromonas hydrophila. Analytical centrifugation measurements showed that proaerolysin is a dimer in solution, and this was confirmed by chemical cross-linking with dimethyl suberimidate. Diss ...
beta-Hexapeptides and a beta-dodecapeptide with sequences contg. two different types of beta-amino acids, aliph. proteinaceous side-chains in 2- or 3-position, were studied with CD and NMR measurements. With one exception, the secondary structures formed b ...
