Computationally Designed Armadillo Repeat Proteins for Modular Peptide Recognition.
Armadillo repeat proteins (ArmRPs) recognize their target peptide in extended conformation and bind, in a first approximation, two residues per repeat. Thus, they may form the basis for building a modular system, in which each repeat is complementary to a piece of the target peptide. Accordingly, preselected repeats could be assembled into specific binding proteins on demand and thereby avoid t...
متن کاملOrigins of catalysis by computationally designed retroaldolase enzymes.
We have investigated recently reported computationally designed retroaldolase enzymes with the goal of understanding the extent and the origins of their catalytic power. Direct comparison of the designed enzymes to primary amine catalysts in solution revealed a rate acceleration of 10(5)-fold for the most active of the designed retroaldolases. Through pH-rate studies of the designed retroaldola...
متن کاملProtein engineering by highly parallel screening of computationally designed variants
Current combinatorial selection strategies for protein engineering have been successful at generating binders against a range of targets; however, the combinatorial nature of the libraries and their vast undersampling of sequence space inherently limit these methods due to the difficulty in finely controlling protein properties of the engineered region. Meanwhile, great advances in computationa...
متن کاملCharacterization of the cofactor-induced folding mechanism of a zinc-binding peptide using computationally designed mutants.
Metals are the most commonly encountered protein cofactors, and they play important structural and functional roles in biology. In many cases, metal binding provides a major driving force for a polypeptide chain to fold. While there are many studies on the structure, stability, and function of metal-binding proteins, there are few studies focusing on understanding the kinetic mechanism of metal...
متن کاملComputationally designed libraries for rapid enzyme stabilization
The ability to engineer enzymes and other proteins to any desired stability would have wide-ranging applications. Here, we demonstrate that computational design of a library with chemically diverse stabilizing mutations allows the engineering of drastically stabilized and fully functional variants of the mesostable enzyme limonene epoxide hydrolase. First, point mutations were selected if they ...
