Fundamental of Secondary Structures in Peptide Based Synthetic Nanovaccine Development
The peptides vaccines are composed of the twenty genetically coded amino acids generally exist as an ensemble of different conformational states in solution. The induction of folded conformations in short peptide vaccine sequences may be achieved by the incorporation of stereochemically constrained non-coded amino acids. The aim of this review briefly provides basic understanding of method of v...
متن کاملMagnitude of vibration triggering component determines safety of structures
Transmission of blast waves is a complex phenomenon and the characteristics vary with blast design parameters and geo-technical properties of medium. Frequency of vibration and triggering component for structural excitation generally quantifies safe vibration magnitude. At closer distance or higher elevations than the blast locations, vertical or transverse component will be the first arrival t...
متن کاملConformational modulation of peptide secondary structures using β-aminobenzenesulfonic acid.
This communication describes the influence of β-aminobenzenesulfonic acid ((S)Ant) on the conformational preferences of hetero foldamers. The designed (Aib-(S)Ant-Aib)n and (Aib-(S)Ant-Pro)n oligomers display a well-defined folded conformation featuring intramolecular mixed hydrogen bonding (7/11) and intra-residual (6/5) H-bonding interactions, respectively.
متن کاملPhysicochemical Position-Dependent Properties in the Protein Secondary Structures
Background: Establishing theories for designing arbitrary protein structures is complicated and depends on understanding the principles for protein folding, which is affected by applied features. Computer algorithms can reach high precision and stability in computationally designing enzymes and binders by applying informative features obtained from natural structures. Methods: In this study, a ...
متن کاملLow-pH triggering of human metapneumovirus fusion: essential residues and importance in entry.
Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is a significant respiratory pathogen classified in the Pneumovirinae subfamily of the paramyxovirus family. Recently, we demonstrated that HMPV F protein-promoted cell-cell fusion is stimulated by exposure to low pH, in contrast to what is observed for other paramyxovirus F proteins. In the present study, we examined the potential role of histidine protonation in H...
