Indicator displacement assays that detect bilayer membranes enriched in phosphatidylserine
Three indicator displacement assays are described for the detection of phosphatidylserine in a bilayer membrane. A series of Zn-dipicolylamine coordination compounds are used to bind selectively to the phosphatidylserine and act as a colorimetric chemosensing ensemble when combined with the UV-Vis indictor pyrocatechol violet. A similar displacement assay uses a coumarin methylsulfonate derivat...
متن کاملCarbohydrate-binding modules: fine-tuning polysaccharide recognition.
The enzymic degradation of insoluble polysaccharides is one of the most important reactions on earth. Despite this, glycoside hydrolases attack such polysaccharides relatively inefficiently as their target glycosidic bonds are often inaccessible to the active site of the appropriate enzymes. In order to overcome these problems, many of the glycoside hydrolases that utilize insoluble substrates ...
متن کاملFine-tuning solid-state luminescence in NPIs (1,8-naphthalimides): impact of the molecular environment and cumulative interactions.
An investigation of a series of seven angular "V" shaped NPIs (1-7) is presented. The effect of substitution of these structurally similar NPIs on their photophysical properties in the solution-state and the solid-state is presented and discussed in light of experimental and computational findings. Compounds 1-7 show negligible to intensely strong emission yields in their solid-state depending ...
متن کاملIndicator amino acid oxidation: concept and application.
The indicator amino acid oxidation (IAAO) method is based on the concept that when 1 indispensable amino acid (IDAA) is deficient for protein synthesis, then all other IDAA, including the indicator amino acid, will be oxidized. With increasing intakes of the limiting amino acid, IAAO will decrease, reflecting increasing incorporation into protein. Once the requirement for the limiting amino aci...
متن کاملTailored amino acid diversity for the evolution of antibody affinity
Antibodies are a unique class of proteins with the ability to adapt their binding sites for high affinity and high specificity to a multitude of antigens. Many analyses have been performed on antibody sequences and structures to elucidate which amino acids have a predominant role in antibody interactions with antigens. These studies have generally not distinguished between amino acids selected ...
