Measuring Energies of a Specific Biomolecular Interaction Using DSC
We describe here a method using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to determine the energy of biomolecular halogen bonds (X-bonds) in a DNA system. This system is unique because we are able to isolate the energetics of a specific molecular interaction from the thermodynamic properties of an entire system. To achieve this goal, we engineered DNA Holliday junctions that are stabilized by eit...
متن کاملBiomolecular folding in vacuo!!!(?)
At the molecular level, life, as we know it, goes on in water. A liquid milieu is doubtless essential to provide rapid mobility to both the small molecules whose traffic is so essential to life and to the functioning macromolecules which act upon them. The omnipresence of water has exerted a profound influence on the evolution of biomolecular function, specificity, and stability. The self-assem...
متن کاملSurface plasmon resonance: a useful technique for cell biologists to characterize biomolecular interactions
Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is a powerful technique for monitoring the affinity and selectivity of biomolecular interactions. SPR allows for analysis of association and dissociation rate constants and modeling of biomolecular interaction kinetics, as well as for equilibrium binding analysis and ligand specificity studies. SPR has received much use and improved precision in classifying prote...
متن کاملDistinct transcriptional profiles characterize oral epithelium-microbiota interactions.
Transcriptional profiling, bioinformatics, statistical and ontology tools were used to uncover and dissect genes and pathways of human gingival epithelial cells that are modulated upon interaction with the periodontal pathogens Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans and Porphyromonas gingivalis. Consistent with their biological and clinical differences, the common core transcriptional response of...
متن کاملNovel platinum(II) compounds with O,S bidentate ligands: synthesis, characterization, antiproliferative properties and biomolecular interactions.
Cisplatin and its analogues are first-line chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of numerous human cancers. A major inconvenience in their clinical use is their strong tendency to link to sulfur compounds, especially in kidney, ultimately leading to severe nephrotoxicity. To overcome this drawback we prepared a variety of platinum complexes with sulfur ligands and analyzed their biological ...
