Functional dynamics of G protein-coupled receptors reveal new routes for drug discovery

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest human membrane protein family that transduce extracellular signals into cellular responses. They are major pharmacological targets, with approximately 26% of marketed drugs targeting GPCRs, primarily at t ...

Minimal shuttle vectors for Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Patrick Daniel Barth, Sahand Jamal Rahi

Sophisticated genetic engineering tasks such as protein domain grafting and multi-gene fusions are hampered by the lack of suitable vector backbones. In particular, many restriction sites are in the backbone outside the polylinker region (multiple cloning ...

Computational design of highly signalling-active membrane receptors through solvent-mediated allosteric networks

Patrick Daniel Barth, Lucas Sebastian Powell-Rudden

Protein catalysis and allostery require the atomic-level orchestration and motion of residues and ligand, solvent and protein effector molecules. However, the ability to design protein activity through precise protein–solvent cooperative interactions has n ...

Antibodies expand the scope of angiotensin receptor pharmacology

Patrick Daniel Barth, Shuhao Zhang

G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are key regulators of human physiology and are the targets of many small-molecule research compounds and therapeutic drugs. While most of these ligands bind to their target GPCR with high affinity, selectivity is often l ...

Designed biosensors for enhanced t cell therapy

Patrick Daniel Barth, Lucas Sebastian Powell-Rudden

This disclosure describes a method for de novo bottom-up assembly and rational design of allosteric biosensors with programmable input-output behaviors that respond to soluble factors selectively enriched in tumors and trigger co-stimulation and cytokine s ...

Computer-implemented design of peptide:receptor signaling complexes for enhanced chemotaxis

Patrick Daniel Barth, Robert Everett Jefferson

The present invention relates to a computer-implemented method for engineering the interaction between a protein and a cognate peptide that are capable of forming a molecular complex, wherein the method comprises (a) preparing in silico a library of test p ...

Computational design of dynamic receptor—peptide signaling complexes applied to chemotaxis

Patrick Daniel Barth, Aurélien Laurent Jean-Charles Oggier, Ana Paola Rico Villarreal, Mahdi Hijazi, Robert Everett Jefferson, Andreas Füglistaler

Engineering protein biosensors that sensitively respond to specific biomolecules by triggering precise cellular responses is a major goal of diagnostics and synthetic cell biology. Previous biosensor designs have largely relied on binding structurally well ...
