Cooperative hydrogen bonding in amyloid formation.
Amyloid diseases, including Alzheimer's and prion diseases, are each associated with unbranched protein fibrils. Each fibril is made of a particular protein, yet they share common properties. One such property is nucleation-dependent fibril growth. Monomers of amyloid-forming proteins can remain in dissolved form for long periods, before rapidly assembly into fibrils. The lag before growth has ...

Amyloid diseases, including Alzheimer’s and prion diseases, are each associated with unbranched protein fibrils. Each fibril is made of a particular protein, yet they share common properties. One such property is nucleation-dependent fibril growth. Monomers of amyloid-forming proteins can remain in dissolved form for long periods, before rapidly assembly into fibrils.

متن کاملH-Bond Self-Assembly: Folding versus Duplex Formation
Linear oligomers equipped with complementary H-bond donor (D) and acceptor (A) sites can interact via intermolecular H-bonds to form duplexes or fold via intramolecular H-bonds. These competing equilibria have been quantified using NMR titration and dilution experiments for seven systems featuring different recognition sites and backbones. For all seven architectures, duplex formation is observ...
متن کاملH-bonding-driven gel formation of a phenylacetylene macrocycle.
An amide-containing phenylacetylene macrocycle (PAM) has been synthesized and its gelation properties were studied in different solvents. Surprisingly, this macrocycle forms organogels at low concentration in many polar and apolar solvents. XRD and FTIR analysis suggest that this macrocycle forms stable supramolecular assemblies owing to H-bonding. Scanning electron microscopy analyses show the...
متن کاملDuplex-single strand denaturing transition in DNA oligomers
We have measured the temperature driven denaturing, or melting transition in poly d(A)-poly d(T) DNA oligomers of various lengths in different buffer conditions. Our findings are in clear disagreement with two state, reaction kinetics model, and we find that the so-called zipper model, where denaturing proceeds through opening of the duplex at the ends describes well the temperature dependence ...
