The Structure of the Protonated Serine Octamer

Ursula Röthlisberger, Thomas Rizzo, Stephan Warnke, Marta Andreia Da Silva Perez, Valeriu Scutelnic, Aurelien Stephen Arnaud Gregor, Carsten Baldauf

The amino acid serine has long been known to form a protonated “magic-number” cluster containing eight monomer units that shows an unusually high abundance in mass spectra and has a remarkable homochiral preference. Despite many experimental and theoretica ...

Steel Wire Mesh as a Thermally Resistant SERS Substrate

Tomasz Radoslaw Szymborski

In this paper, we present novel type of Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) platform, based on stainless steel wire mesh (SSWM) covered with thin silver layer. The stainless steel wire mesh, typically used in chemical engineering industry, is a chea ...

More Medicines for Tuberculosis: Fuelling Drug Discovery against Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Shi-Yan Caroline Foo

Tuberculosis (TB), whose etiological agent is Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis), has plagued humanity since antiquity. Even with chemotherapy available today, TB is the leading cause of death due to an infectious disease. Modern day factors, suc ...

Tunable Enhancement of Raman Scattering in Graphene-Nanoparticle Hybrids

Klaus Kern, Kannan Balasubramanian

The realization of graphene-gold-nanoparticle (G-AuNP) hybrids is presented here through a versatile electrochemical approach, which allows the continuous tuning of the size and density of the particles obtainable on the graphene surface. Raman scattering ...

It is All About Proteases: From Drug Delivery to In Vivo Imaging and Photomedicine

Hubert van den Bergh

Clinical studies provide overwhelming evidence for the importance of proteolytic imbalance and the upregulation of diverse protease classes in diseases such as cancer and arthritis. While the complex nature of proteolytic networks has hampered the developm ...

Enhanced proteolytic degradation of molecularly engineered PEG hydrogels in response to MMP-1 and MMP-2

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Jennifer Patterson

Bioactive hydrogels formed by Michael-type addition reactions of end-functionalized poly(ethylene glycol) macromers with cysteine-containing peptides have been described as extracellular matrix mimetics and tissue engineering scaffolds. Although these mate ...

Drosophila immunity: a large-scale in vivo RNAi screen identifies five serine proteases required for Toll activation

Bruno Lemaitre

Unlike mammalian Toll-like Receptors, the Drosophila Toll receptor does not interact directly with microbial determinants but is rather activated upon binding a cleaved form of the cytokine-like molecule Spatzle (Spz). During the immune response, Spz is th ...

Triple Quantum Decoherence under Multiple Refocusing: Slow Correlated Chemical Shift Modulations of C' and N Nuclei in Proteins

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Julien Wist

A new expt. allows the identification of residues that feature slow conformational exchange in macromols. Rotations about dihedral angles that are slower than the global correlation time tc cause a modulation of the isotropic chem. shifts of the nuclei. If ...

Assembly of the gamma-secretase complex involves early formation of an intermediate subcomplex of Aph-1 and nicastrin

Patrick Fraering

The gamma-secretase complex is an unusual multimeric protease responsible for the intramembrane cleavage of a variety of type 1 transmembrane proteins, including the beta-amyloid precursor protein and Notch. Genetic and biochemical data have revealed that ...

The Catalytic Site of Serine Proteinases as a Specific Binding Cavity for Xenon

Background: Under moderate pressure, xenon can bind to proteins and form weak but specific interactions. Such protein-xenon complexes can be used as isomorphous derivatives for phase determination in X-ray crystallography. Results: Investigation of the ser ...
