Circular beta-lactamase: stability enhancement by cyclizing the backbone.
We have cyclized the polypeptide backbone of beta-lactamase with a short peptide loop as a novel method for protein stabilization, using intein-mediated protein ligation. Successful cyclization was proven by mass spectrometry and subsequent re-linearization by proteolytic cleavage, as well as by resistance against carboxypeptidase. Under the conditions of the experiment, no disulfide bond is pr...
متن کاملSynthesis and biological activity of NK-1 selective, N-backbone cyclic analogs of the C-terminal hexapeptide of substance P.
The application of the concept of backbone cyclization to linear substance P (SP) analogs is presented. We describe the synthesis, characterization, and biological activity of a series of backbone-to-amino-terminus cyclic analogs of the C-terminal hexapeptide of SP. These analogs were designed on the basis of NMR data and molecular modeling of the selective NK-1 analog WS-septide (Ac[Arg6,Pro9]...
متن کاملSynthesis of polynucleotide analogs containing a polyvinyl alcohol backbone.
Water soluble homo-base polynucleotide analogues were synthesized in which polyvinyl alcohol and partially phosphonated polyvinyl alcohol constituted the backbones,onto which were grafted uracil or adenine via 1,3-dioxane spacers formed by acetal formation with the 1,3-diol moieties in PVA. The resulting adenine-PVA polynucleotide analogs exhibited hyperchromic effects, which was not the case f...
متن کاملBackbone-modified amphiphilic cyclic di- and tetrasaccharides.
Synthesis of amphiphilic, cyclic di- and tetrasaccharides, which incorporate a methylene moiety at the inter-glycosidic bond, is reported. The amphiphilic properties of the new cyclic tetrasaccharide host were identified through assessing the solubilities of guests in aqueous and in organic solvents. The glycosidic bond stability of the cyclic tetrasaccharide under aqueous acidic condition was ...
متن کاملDevelopment of a functional backbone cyclic mimetic of the HIV-1 Tat arginine-rich motif.
We have used the backbone cyclic proteinomimetics approach to develop peptides that functionally mimic the arginine-rich motif (ARM) of the HIV-1 Tat protein. This consensus sequence serves both as a nuclear localization signal (NLS) and as an RNA binding domain. Based on the NMR structure of Tat, we have designed and synthesized a backbone cyclic ARM mimetic peptide library. The peptides were ...
