Assessment of transferable forcefields for protein simulations attests improved description of disordered states and secondary structure propensities, and hints at multi-protein systems as the next challenge for optimization

Matteo Dal Peraro, Luciano Andres Abriata

Continuous assessment of transferable forcefields for molecular simulations is essential to identify their weaknesses and direct improvement efforts. The latest efforts focused on better describing disordered proteins while retaining proper description of ...

Structure-Property Relationships in Complex Materials by Combining Supervised and Unsupervised Machine Learning

Benjamin Aaron Helfrecht

The work presented in this thesis combines supervised and unsupervised machine learning to examine structure-property relationships in databases of materials. While either supervised learning or unsupervised learning alone can be a powerful tool for assess ...

Revisiting Cation Complexation and Hydrogen Bonding of Single-Chain Polyguluronate Alginate

Modifying the properties of bio-based materials has garnered increasing interest in recent years. In related applications, the ability of alginates to complex with metal ions has been shown to be effective in liquid-to-gel transitions, useful in the develo ...

The Nt17 Domain and its Helical Conformation Regulate the Aggregation, Cellular Properties and Neurotoxicity of Mutant Huntingtin Exon 1

Giovanni Dietler, Hilal Lashuel, Anne-Laure Mahul Mellier, Francesco Simone Ruggeri, Anass Chiki, Sean Michael Deguire, Urszula Beata Cendrowska, Sophie Vieweg, Nathan Alain Denis Riguet

Converging evidence points to the N-terminal domain comprising the first 17 amino acids of the Huntingtin protein (Nt17) as a key regulator of its aggregation, cellular properties and toxicity. In this study, we further investigated the interplay between N ...

Sequence-dependent structural properties of B-DNA: what have we learned in 40 years?

John Maddocks, Daiva Petkeviciute, Rahul Sharma, Marco Pasi, Paolo Carloni

The structure of B-DNA, the physiological form of the DNA molecule, has been a central topic in biology, chemistry and physics. Far from uniform and rigid, the double helix was revealed as a flexible and structurally polymorphic molecule. Conformational ch ...

Membrane Activity of a DNA-Based Ion Channel Depends on the Stability of Its Double-Stranded Structure

Diana Kornelia Morzy, Himanshu Joshi

DNA nanotechnology has emerged as a promising method for designing spontaneously inserting and fully controllable synthetic ion channels. However, both insertion efficiency and stability of existing DNA-based membrane channels leave much room for improveme ...

Structure determination of an amorphous drug through large-scale NMR predictions

David Lyndon Emsley, Pierrick Berruyer, Albert Hofstetter, Manuel Cordova, Federico Maria Paruzzo, Bruno Simões de Almeida, Martins Balodis

Knowledge of the structure of amorphous solids can direct, for example, the optimization of pharmaceutical formulations, but atomic-level structure determination in amorphous molecular solids has so far not been possible. Solid-state nuclear magnetic reson ...

Structure of the mitochondrial import gate reveals distinct preprotein paths

Marilena Wischnewski, Jian Qiu, Thomas Becker

The translocase of the outer mitochondrial membrane (TOM) is the main entry gate for proteins(1-4). Here we use cryo-electron microscopy to report the structure of the yeast TOM core complex(5-9) at 3.8-angstrom resolution. The structure reveals the high-r ...

Broad-Band Ultraviolet CD Spectroscopy of Ultrafast Peptide Backbone Conformational Dynamics

Majed Chergui, Malte Oppermann, Benjamin Bauer

The far-UV spectral window widely used for the conformational analysis of biomolecules is not easily covered with broad-band lasers. This has made it difficult to use circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy to directly follow fast structure changes. By combin ...

Membrane–Protein–Hydration Interaction of α-Synuclein with Anionic Vesicles Probed via Angle-Resolved Second-Harmonic Scattering

Sylvie Roke, Jan Dedic, Halil Ibrahim Okur

Amyloid formation of the protein α-synuclein promotes neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease. The normal function of α-synuclein includes synaptic vesicle transport and fusion, and the protein binds strongly to negatively charged vesicles in vitro. Here, ...
