Impact of Stabilizing Osmolytes on the Conformational Dynamics of Human and Rat Islet Amyloid Polypeptides

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aggregation of human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) into cytotoxic oligomers and amyloid fibrils is a hallmark of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), leading to pancreatic β‐cell dysfunction. In contrast, rat IAPP (rIAPP) is largely non‐amyloidogenic. Osmolytes such as glucose, glycerol, and sorbitol are known to stabilize globular protein

Single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas assays for point‐of‐need detection of Stewart's wilt pathogen (Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii) of corn and Maize dwarf mosaic virus

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1988-1999, April 2025.
Schematic diagram of the single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas12a/13a diagnostic assays for the detection of Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii and Maize dwarf mosaic virus. The validated assays provide a useful and sensitive molecular tool for detecting two quarantine pathogens of maize within a minimal resource framework suitable for fast‐tracking the ...

Atomistic Simulations of Macromolecular Crowding [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2010
Protein folding, binding, and aggregation are known to be affected by macromolecular crowding [1], which is an integral part of intracellular environments. Realistic modeling of intracellular crowding requires computer simulations. In direct simulations of test proteins mixed with crowders, it has only been practical to represent the proteins at a ...

BODIPY Photocage‐Based Injectable Hydrogel for Light‐Controlled Nanoparticle Release

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
This work presents an injectable hydrogel formulation which undergoes efficient photodegradation under green light irradiation. The gel can be easily injected to subcutaneous tissue through 23G needles, co‐encapsulate and photo‐release nanoparticles as well as exhibits excellent biocompatibility, making it promising for the development of light ...

An optimized strategy to measure protein stability highlights differences between cold and hot unfolded states

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Crowding effects—important when considering cellular environments—greatly influence protein stability. Here the authors study the impact of macromolecular crowders on high and low temperature protein unfolding, and show that volume exclusion effects are ...
