Functionalizable collagen model peptides.
The functionalizability and conformational properties of azidoproline (Azp)-containing collagen model peptides (CMPs) were studied. The results show that (4R)Azp has a similar stabilizing effect on the collagen triple helix as (4R)hydroxyproline and that functionalized CMPs are readily accessible by "click" chemistry. The resulting triazole-functionalized CMPs form stable triple helices, demons...
متن کاملSecondary Structure Effects on the Acidity of Histidine and Lysine-Based Peptides Model; A Theoretical Study
In this study, the effect of the secondary structure of the protein on the acid strength of three structures of random (R), alpha helix (α) and beta sheet (b) were investigated theoretically. These structures are related to the cationic amino acids of histidine and lysine in the polypeptide chain of eight-glycine residue. Computational methods at the HF, B3LYP, X3LYP and M05-2X levels in t...
متن کاملFacile modification of collagen directed by collagen mimetic peptides.
Recent widespread interest in the development of engineered tissue and organ replacement therapies has prompted demand for new approaches to immobilize exogenous components to natural collagen. Chemical coupling of synthetic moieties to amino acid side chains has been commonly practiced for such purposes; however, such coupling reactions are difficult to control on large proteins and are genera...
متن کاملEpidermal cell migration on collagen and collagen-derived peptides.
Nucleopore filters coated with various genetic types of collagen and certain collagen-derived peptides were implanted under one margin of a skin wound on adult Notophthalmus viridescens (newt) hind limbs. In contrast to their behaviour on untreated filters, epidermal cells migrated readily and to equal degrees on human type I, newt type I, bovine type II, and bovine type IV collagen. Denaturati...
متن کاملIn Situ Imaging of Tissue Remodeling with Collagen Hybridizing Peptides
Collagen, the major structural component of nearly all mammalian tissues, undergoes extensive proteolytic remodeling during developmental states and a variety of life-threatening diseases such as cancer, myocardial infarction, and fibrosis. While degraded collagen could be an important marker of tissue damage, it is difficult to detect and target using conventional tools. Here, we show that a d...
