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 ...
The self-assembly mechanism has been studied in poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate)-poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) (PBLG-PEG-PBLG) triblock copolymer melts using X-ray scattering, polarizing optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, a ...
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 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 ...
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 ...
Hydrophobins self assemble into amphipathic films at hydrophobic-hydrophilic interfaces. These proteins are involved in a broad range of processes in fungal development. We have studied the conformational changes that accompany the self-assembly of the hyd ...
In this thesis, the synthesis of oligomers of β-amino acids (β-peptides) is described. Their secondary structure is investigated by several techniques, in particular nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, but also circular dichroism and infrared sp ...
The chemical synthesis, conformational analysis and receptor binding studies of novel constrained cyclosporin A (CsA) analogues are described. The selective insertion of pseudo-proline (PsiPro) systems featuring different 2-C-substituents at the oxazolidin ...
Deciphering the mechanism(s) of beta-sheet mediated self-assembly is essential for understanding amyloid fibril formation and for the fabrication of polypeptide materials. Herein, we report a simple peptidomimetic that self-assembles into polymorphic beta- ...
We present mol. dynamics simulations of bovine rhodopsin in a membrane mimetic environment based on the recently refined x-ray structure of the pigment. The interactions between the protonated Schiff base and the protein moiety are explored both with the c ...
