γ-Amino acid mutated α-coiled coils as mild thermal triggers for liposome delivery.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The stability and compatibility of designed coiled coil peptides towards the selective incorporation of γ(4)-amino acids at the hydrophobic positions of the heptad repeat are studied. Investigations reveal that the low thermal denaturation temperature of γ(4)-residue mutated coiled coils can be utilized as a mild hyperthermia trigger in liposomes.

Computational characterization of parallel dimeric and trimeric coiled-coils using effective amino acid indices.
The coiled-coil, which consists of two or more α-helices winding around each other, is a ubiquitous and the most frequently observed protein-protein interaction motif in nature. The coiled-coil is known for its straightforward heptad repeat pattern and can be readily recognized based on protein primary sequences, exhibiting a variety of oligomer states and topologies. Due to the stable interact...
متن کاملSequence divergence of coiled coils--structural rods, myosin filament packing, and the extraordinary conservation of cohesins.
The amino acid sequences of the long, anti-parallel coiled coils of the cohesin subunits SMC1 and SMC3 are almost totally conserved in mammals. To understand this exceptional conservation more broadly, we analyzed amino acid sequence variation for several groups of coiled-coil proteins. Some long coiled coils, including giantin, NuMA, and Ndc80p/Nuf2p diverge approximately 20% from humans to ro...
متن کاملAnti-parallel Coiled Coils Structure Prediction by Support Vector Machine Classification
Coiled coils is an important 3-D protein structure with two or more stranded alpha-helical motif wounded around to form a “knobs-into-holes” structure. In this paper we propose an SVM classification approach to predict the antiparallel coiled coils structure based on the primary amino acid sequence. The training dataset for the machine learning are collected from SOCKET database which is a SOCK...
متن کاملSulfuric acid {[3-(3-silicapropyl)sulfanyl]propyl}ester as a recyclable solid acid catalyst for the synthesis of α-amino nitriles
Sulfuric acid {[3-(3-silicapropyl)sulfanyl]propyl}ester (SASPSPE) is employed as a recyclable catalyst for the synthesis of α-amino nitriles. These syntheses were performed via a one-pot three-component condensation of aldehydes, amines, and trimethylsilyl cyanide under mild reaction conditions at room temperature. The catalyst could be recycled and reused several times without any loss of effi...
