Rational Design of Analyte Channels of the Green Fluorescent Protein for Biosensor Applications
A novel solvent-exposed analyte channel, generated by F165G substitution, on the surface of green fluorescent protein (designated His(6)GFPuv/F165G) was successfully discovered by the aid of molecular modeling software (PyMOL) in conjunction with site-directed mutagenesis. Regarding the high predictive performance of PyMOL, two pore-containing mutants namely His(6)GFPuv/H148G and His(6)GFPuv/H1...
متن کاملDesign of a ribonucleopeptide biosensor.
Ribonucleopeptide receptors for ATP have been designed by using a structure-based design and in vitro selection method. The ATP binding ribonucleopeptide receptors revealed submillimolar affinity to ATP and discriminate ATP against other ribonucleotides. In this research, we have developed a simple strategy to convert the ATP-binding ribonucleopeptide receptor into a ribonucleopeptide sensor by...
متن کاملImaging Ca2+ nanosparks in heart with a new targeted biosensor.
RATIONALE In cardiac dyads, junctional Ca2+ directly controls the gating of the ryanodine receptors (RyRs), and is itself dominated by RyR-mediated Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Existing probes do not report such local Ca2+ signals because of probe diffusion, so a junction-targeted Ca2+ sensor should reveal new information on cardiac excitation-contraction coupling and its modif...
متن کاملDesign and application of a lactulose biosensor
In this study the repressor of Escherichia coli lac operon, LacI, has been engineered for altered effector specificity. A LacI saturation mutagenesis library was subjected to Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting (FACS) dual screening. Mutant LacI-L5 was selected and it is specifically induced by lactulose but not by other disaccharides tested (lactose, epilactose, maltose, sucrose, cellobiose an...
متن کاملDesign of acetylcholinesterases for biosensor applications.
In recent years, the use of acetylcholinesterases (AChEs) in biosensor technology has gained enormous attention, in particular with respect to insecticide detection. The principle of biosensors using AChE as a biological recognition element is based on the inhibition of the enzyme's natural catalytic activity by the agent that is to be detected. The advanced understanding of the structure-funct...
