Azurin, Plasmodium falciparum Malaria and HIV/AIDS: Inhibition of Parasitic and Viral Growth by Azurin [PDF]

Cell Cycle, 2006
Azurin, a member of a family of copper-containing proteins involved in electron transfer called cupredoxins, demonstrates structural features similar to the variable domains of the immunoglobulin superfamily members. An azurin-like protein called Laz with an additional N-terminal 39 amino acid peptide known as H.8 epitope is present on the surface of ...

Gene synthesis, expression, and mutagenesis of azurin [PDF]

, 1991
A synthetic gene for the blue copper protein Pseudomonas aeruginosa azurin has been constructed using a novel, stepwise method. This method is designed to synthesize a gene of any size reliably by building only controlled amounts of the gene in each step.

Protein Electronics: Chemical Modulation of Contacts Control Energy Level Alignment in Gold-Azurin-Gold Junctions

, 2018
Making biomolecular electronics a reality will require control over charge transport across biomolecules. Here we show that chemical modulation of the coupling between one of the electronic contacts and the biomolecules in a solid-state junction allows ...

Late‐Stage Functionalization of Peptides on the Solid Phase

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Peptide modifications are essential to control pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic properties of peptide drugs. Consequently, strategies that allow for efficient and rapid incorporation of non‐canonical modifications into peptides in parallel formats are highly sought after.

Mechanical Deformation and Electronic Structure of a Blue Copper Azurin in a Solid-State Junction

Biomolecules, 2019
Protein-based electronics is an emerging field which has attracted considerable attention over the past decade. Here, we present a theoretical study of the formation and electronic structure of a metal-protein-metal junction based on the blue-copper ...

Bacterial delivery of the anti-tumor azurin-like protein Laz to glioblastoma cells

AMB Express, 2020
Salmonella typhimurium VNP-20009 (VNP) is a non-pathogenic attenuated strain, which, as a facultative anaerobe, preferentially accumulates in hypoxic regions of solid tumors.

Probing the Bioinorganic Chemistry of Cu(I) with ¹¹¹Ag Perturbed Angular Correlation (PAC) Spectroscopy

Inorganics, 2023
The two most common oxidation states of copper in biochemistry are Cu(II) and Cu(I), and while Cu(II) lends itself to spectroscopic interrogation, Cu(I) is silent in most techniques.

Carbon Contacts to Proteins Enable Robust, Biocompatible Electronic Junctions with Near‐Activation‐less Conduction Down to 10 K

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 31, 16 April 2026.
A robust solid‐state protein junction with a semi‐transparent eC/Au electrode allows photoexcitation of the bacterio‐rhodopsin, bR layer, to isomerize the bR retinal. The resulting photo‐response shows the protein is functional in the solid‐state junction.
