FKBPs in bacterial infections
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2015)Background: FK506-binding proteins (FKBPs) contain a domain with peptidyl-prolyl-cis/trans-isomerase (PPlase) activity and bind the immunosuppressive drugs FK506 and rapamycin. FKBPs belong to the immunophilin family and ... -
MIPs and aptamers for recognition of proteins in biomimetic sensing
(Mdpi, 2016)Biomimetic binders and catalysts have been generated in order to substitute the biological pendants in separation techniques and bioanalysis. The two major approaches use either "evolution in the test tube" of nucleotides ... -
Novel therapeutic strategies for Clostridium difficile infections
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2016)Introduction: In recent years, Clostridium difficile has become the primary cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhea and pseudomembranous colitis, resulting in long and complicated hospital stays that represent a serious ... -
Tyrosine regulates beta-sheet structure formation in amyloid-beta(42): a new clustering algorithm for disordered proteins
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2017)Our recent studies show that the single Tyr residue in the sequence of amyloid-beta(42) (A beta(42)) is reactive toward various ligands, including metals and adenosine trisphospate (see: Coskuner, O. J. Biol. Inorg. Chem. ... -
Calibration-free extraction of constitutive parameters of magnetically coupled anisotropic metamaterials using waveguide measurements
(Amer Inst Physics, 2017)A calibration-free method for extraction of electromagnetic properties of magnetically coupled anisotropic biaxial metamaterial (MM) slabs from waveguide measurements is proposed. It relies on three measurement steps (thru, ... -
BMP-2 and BMP-9 binding specificities with ALK-3 in aqueous solution with dynamics
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2017)Signal ligands of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily include the bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs). BMPs bind to type I and type II serine-threonine kinase receptors and trigger the transphosphorylation ... -
Single-shot full strain tensor determination with microbeam X-ray Laue diffraction and a two-imensional energy-dispersive detector
(Int Union Crystallography, 2017)The full strain and stress tensor determination in a triaxially stressed single crystal using X-ray diffraction requires a series of lattice spacing measurements at different crystal orientations. This can be achieved using ... -
Insights into the molecular mechanisms of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases with molecular simulations: understanding the roles of artificial and pathological missense mutations in intrinsically disordered proteins related to pathology
(Mdpi, 2018)Amyloid-beta and alpha-synuclein are intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), which are at the center of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease pathologies, respectively. These IDPs are extremely flexible and do not adopt ... -
Molecular LEGO by domain-imprinting of cytochrome P450 BM3
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2018)Hypothesis: Electrosynthesis of the MIP nano-film after binding of the separated domains or holocytochrome BM3 via an engineered anchor should result in domain-specific cavities in the polymer layer. Experiments: Both the ... -
Electrosynthesized MIPs for transferrin: Plastibodies or nano-filters?
(Elsevier Advanced Technology, 2018)Molecularly imprinted polymer (MP) nanofilrns for transferrin (Trf) have been synthesized on gold surfaces by electro-polymerizing the functional monomer scopoletin in the presence of the protein target or around pre-adsorbed ... -
Electrochemical MIP-sensors for drugs
(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, 2018)In order to replace bio-macromolecules by stable synthetic materials in separation techniques and bioanalysis biomimetic receptors and catalysts have been developed: Functional monomers are polymerized together with the ... -
Virtual extensometer analysis of martensite band nucleation, growth, and strain softening in pseudoelastic NiTi subjected to different load cases
(Mdpi, 2018)Pseudoelastic NiTi shape memory alloys exhibit different stress-strain curves and modes of deformation in tension vs. compression. We have recently shown that under a combination of compression and shear, heterogeneous ... -
PrsA2 (CD630_35000) of clostridioides difficile Is an Active Parvulin-Type PPlase and a virulence modulator
(Frontiers Media Sa, 2018)Clostridioides difficile is the main cause for nosocomial antibiotic associated diarrhea and has become a major burden for the health care systems of industrial countries. Its main virulence factors, the small GTPase ... -
Self-assembly of aromatic amino acids: a molecular dynamics study
(Royal Soc Chemistry, 2018)The self assembly processes of aromatic amino acids, phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan have been simulated and were observed to form fibril-like aggregates linked to certain rare diseases and instances of biological ... -
Intrinsically disordered proteins in various hypotheses on the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases
(Elsevier Academic Press Inc, 2019)Amyloid-beta (A beta) and alpha-synuclein (alpha S) are two intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) at the centers of the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, respectively. Different hypotheses have been ... -
Superhydrophobic hybrid paper sheets with janus-type wettability
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2018)We introduce the design of Janus-type paper sheets where one side of the paper exhibits superhydrophobic properties, whereas the other side of the sheet remains hydrophilic and therefore can take up aqueous solutions by ... -
Alanine scanning effects on the biochemical and viophysical properties of intrinsically disordered proteins: a case study of the histidine to alanine mutations in amyloid-beta(42)
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2019)Alanine scanning is a tool in molecular biology that is commonly used to evaluate the contribution of a specific amino acid residue to the stability and function of a protein. Additionally, this tool is also used to ... -
Transition metal Ion interactions with disordered Amyloid-beta Peptides in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease: insights from computational chemistry studies
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2019)Monomers and oligomers of the amyloid-beta peptide aggregate to form the fibrils found in the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients. These monomers and oligomers are largely disordered and can interact with transition ... -
3In-silico prediction of synergistic anti-cancer drug combinations using multi-omics data
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019)Chemotherapy is a routine treatment approach for early-stage cancers, but the effectiveness of such treatments is often limited by drug resistance, toxicity, and tumor heterogeneity. Combination chemotherapy, in which two ... -
