Biologically-inspired peptide sequences have been explored as auxiliaries to mediate self-assembly of synthetic macromolecules into hierarchically organized solution and solid state nanostructures. Peptide sequences inspired by the coiled coil motif and "s ...
A generic method is described for the reversible immobilization of polyhistidine-bearing polypeptides and proteins on attenuated total reflecting (ATR) sensor surfaces for the detection of biomol. interactions by FTIR spectroscopy. Nitrilotriacetic acid (N ...
The outer membrane protein OmpF from Escherichia coli is a member of a large family of b-barrel membrane proteins. Some, like OmpF, are pore-forming proteins while others are active transporters or enzymes. We have previously shown that the receptor-bindin ...
The reversible, oriented immobilization of proteins on solid surfaces is a prerequisite for the investigation of mol. interactions and the controlled formation of supramol. assemblies. This paper describes a generally applicable method using a synthetic ch ...
A chimeric TASP (Template Assembled Synthetic Proteins) mol., consisting of a 4-helix bundle motif and an antibody recognition site, has been covalently attached to a gold surface. The reversible antibody binding to the self-assembled monolayer as monitore ...
The spectroscopic and electrochemical properties of two-dimensional electrostatic assembly of Au nanocrystals are examined on poly-L-lysine (pLys) modified gold electrodes. The surface preparation for the nanoparticle deposition involved the self-assembly ...
The ability of organisms, or individual cells to sense and to react to different external and internal stimuli (light, hormones, odorants, taste) is crucial for their survival. I will report on our recent progress to investigate mol. signal recognition and ...
A simple approach to the in situ measurement of IR spectra of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on gold in an aq. environment is described. A thin gold film (3-5 nm) on the surface of a germanium internal reflection element is used as a substrate for the se ...
The controlled incorporation of polypeptides and proteins into micropatterened lipid mono- and bilayers on solid supports provide important understanding of the structural organization of membrane components and have potential applications in such fields a ...
Regioselectivity addressable functionalised templates (RAFT) represent topological cyclic peptides containing orthogonally protected attachment sites pointing to opposite faces of the template backbone. Functionalisation of the template with coordinating g ...
