Protein architecture by de novo design
De novo protein design is an essential approach to elucidate the principles of protein structure and has potential applications that can yield novel molecules for medical and industrial purposes, such as drug discovery. The new idea that we can design artificial amino-acid sequences capable of folding into the desired three-dimensional (3D) structure may originate from the conceptual proposal m...
متن کاملTemplate assisted protein de novo design
The ultimate goal in protein de novo design is the Construction of artificial proteins exhibiting tailor-made structural and functional properties. To create nativelike macromolecules in copying nature's way has proven to be difficult because the mechanism of folding in its complexity has yet to be unravelled. In the present review we describe a conceptually different approach in protein design...
متن کاملDe novo backbone scaffolds for protein design
In recent years, there have been significant advances in the field of computational protein design including the successful computational design of enzymes based on backbone scaffolds from experimentally solved structures. It is likely that large-scale sampling of protein backbone conformations will become necessary as further progress is made on more complicated systems. Removing the constrain...
متن کاملDe novo design of protein mimics of B-DNA.
Structural mimicry of DNA is utilized in nature as a strategy to evade molecular defences mounted by host organisms. One such example is the protein Ocr - the first translation product to be expressed as the bacteriophage T7 infects E. coli. The structure of Ocr reveals an intricate and deliberate arrangement of negative charges that endows it with the ability to mimic ∼24 base pair stretches o...
متن کاملDe novo design of biocatalysts.
The challenging field of de novo enzyme design is beginning to produce exciting results. The application of powerful computational methods to functional protein design has recently succeeded at engineering target activities. In addition, efforts in directed evolution continue to expand the transformations that can be accomplished by existing enzymes. The engineering of completely novel catalyti...
