The Importance of Being Imperfect: Structure and Function of Bacterial Amyloid

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Functional bacterial amyloids such as CsgA and FapC have been widely studied to understand the relationship between aggregation and function. The recently solved structure of FapC reveals a Greek‐key motif in which extensive hydrogen bonding and packing interactions formed by residues in conserved imperfect repeats stabilize a β‐solenoid core.

Ribosomal Synthesis of Topologically Defined Thioisoindole‐Bridged Bicyclic Peptides

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A flexible in vitro translation (FIT) system‐based strategy for ribosomal synthesis of thioisoindole‐bridged bicyclic (TiB) peptides is developed. The flexizyme substrate Ac‐Ala(NtBA)Sc‐CME is efficiently incorporated into FIT to generate ribosomal peptides bearing N‐terminal Ac‐Ala(NtBA)Sc as the cyclization handle, which after mild deprotection ...

Reversible Sandwich‐Based Particle Nanoswitch for Continuous Protein Monitoring at Picomolar Concentrations with Automated Calibration

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A reversible particle nanoswitch sensor enables continuous protein monitoring by forming transient sandwich complexes in the presence of analyte molecules. Site‐specific conjugations ensure optimal antibody fragment orientation. Demonstrated for lactoferrin, the sensor achieves picomolar sensitivity with ∼12 min time delay and continuous measurements ...

Tuning Polyacrylate Composition to Recognize and Modulate Fluorescent Proteins

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Random hetero oligomers (RHOs) of defined compositions are synthesized and fractionated to identify the chemical design criteria (charge, length, hydrophobicity) required to achieve nanomolar binding to green fluorescent protein, resulting in >100% fluorescence increases.
