Directed evolution of ligand dependence: small-molecule-activated protein splicing.
Artificial molecular switches that modulate protein activities in response to synthetic small molecules would serve as tools for exerting temporal and dose-dependent control over protein function. Self-splicing protein elements (inteins) are attractive starting points for the creation of such switches, because their insertion into a protein blocks the target protein's function until splicing oc...
متن کاملSmall-molecule inhibitors of protein-protein interactions.
Protein-protein interactions regulate almost all aspects of cellular signaling and aberrant protein-protein interactions have the potential to cause or contribute to human disease. The modulation of these interactions by drug-like molecules would offer previously unavailable opportunities to explore the relevance of pre-selected protein-protein interactions for cellular signaling, as well as be...
متن کاملMislocalization and inhibition of acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 by a synthetic small molecule.
Chromeceptin is a synthetic small molecule that inhibits insulin-induced adipogenesis of 3T3-L1 cells and impairs the function of IGF2 (insulin-like growth factor 2). The molecular target of this benzochromene derivative is MFP-2 (multifunctional protein 2). The interaction between chromeceptin and MFP-2 activates STAT6 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 6), which subsequently in...
متن کاملSmall-molecule-directed nanoparticle assembly towards stimuli-responsive nanocomposites.
Precise control of the spatial organization of nanoscopic building blocks, such as nanoparticles, over multiple length scales is a bottleneck in the 'bottom-up' generation of technologically important materials. Only a few approaches have been shown to achieve nanoparticle assemblies without surface modification. We demonstrate a simple yet versatile approach to produce stimuli-responsive hiera...
متن کاملCharacterization of Small Molecule to Protein Binding
Label-free technologies are mostly used for detection of biomolecular interactions between proteins or other macromolecules. Characterization of small molecule to protein binding has often been a challenge because label-free signal depends on molecular weight of the analyte and analyte-to-target molecular weight ratio. In this study we show that Nanopore Optical Interferometry (NPOI) can be use...
