Rapid sensitive analysis of cysteine rich peptide venom components.
Disulfide-rich peptide venoms from animals such as snakes, spiders, scorpions, and certain marine snails represent one of nature's great diversity libraries of bioactive molecules. The various species of marine cone shells have alone been estimated to produce >50,000 distinct peptide venoms. These peptides have stimulated considerable interest because of their ability to potently alter the func...
متن کاملEnhanced Bioadsorption of Cadmium and Nickel by E. coli Displaying A Metal Binding Motif Using CS3 Fimbriae
Display of peptides on the surface of bacteria offers many new and exciting applications in biotechnology. Fimbriae is a good candidate for epitope display on the surface of bacteria. The potential of CS3 fimbriae of enterotoxigenic E. coli as a display system has been investigated. A novel cell surface display system with metal binding property was developed by using CS3 fimbriae. Short metal ...
متن کاملDensity functional study of the cysteine adsorption on Au nanoparticles
The adsorption of the cysteine amino acid (H-SC H2C H-NH2-COOH) on the Au55 nanocluster is investigated through density functional theory calculations. Two isomers, with icosahedral and chiral geometries, of the Au55 nanocluster are used to calculate the adsorption energy of the cysteine on different facets of these isomers. Results involving the S(thiolate)-Au bonding show that the higher adso...
متن کاملElucidating the influence of materials-binding peptide sequence on Au surface interactions and colloidal stability of Au nanoparticles.
Peptide-mediated synthesis and assembly of nanostructures opens new routes to functional inorganic/organic hybrid materials. However, understanding of the many factors that influence the interaction of biomolecules, specifically peptides, with metal surfaces remains limited. Understanding of the relationship between peptide sequence and resulting binding affinity and configurations would allow ...
متن کاملInfluence of Cysteine and Tryptophan Substitution on DNA-Binding Activity on Maize α-Hairpinin Antimicrobial Peptide.
For almost four decades, antimicrobial peptides have been studied, and new classes are being discovered. However, for therapeutic use of these molecules, issues related to the mechanism of action must be answered. In this work, the antimicrobial activity of the hairpinin MBP-1 was studied by the synthesis of two variants, one replacing cysteines and one tryptophan with alanine. Antibacterial ac...
