The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Characterization of Trypsin-Like Protease of Lactobacillus plantarum FNCC 0270

open access: yesHayati Journal of Biosciences, 2014
Trypsin is an enzyme that has a unique mechanism of cutting peptide bonds specifically at the carboxyl side of lysine or arginine amino acids, with another amino acid.

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

A Model of Demasking and Hydrolysis of Peptide Bonds During Tryptic Digestion of β-Casein and β-Lactoglobulin

open access: yesMolecules
The prediction of polypeptide chain fragmentation during digestion (proteolysis) of protein substrates by trypsin was carried out for globular β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) and micellar β-casein (β-CN).

Predicting peptide structures in native proteins from physical simulations of fragments. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2009
It has long been proposed that much of the information encoding how a protein folds is contained locally in the peptide chain. Here we present a large-scale simulation study designed to examine the extent to which conformations of peptide fragments in ...

Antigenic Determinant of Trichosanthin Peptide Fragments

open access: yesImmunopharmacology and Immunotoxicology, 1986
Purified plant protein, Trichosanthin (TCS), was partially digested with chymotrypsin to produce peptide fragments. Two large fragments, I and II, have been isolated and identified as C-terminal peptides located at sequence positions between 79-234 and 107-234. Their molecular weights determined by electrophoretic mobility on SDS gel were 16,000 and 14,

Controlled assembly of SNAP-PNA-fluorophore systems on DNA templates to produce fluorescence resonance energy transfer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The SNAP protein is a widely used self-labeling tag that can be used for tracking protein localization and trafficking in living systems. A model system providing controlled alignment of SNAP-tag units can provide a new way to study clustering of fusion ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Elucidating functional epitopes within the N-terminal region of malaria transmission blocking vaccine antigen Pfs230

open access: yesnpj Vaccines, 2022
Pfs230 is a leading malaria transmission blocking vaccine (TBV) candidate. Comprising 3135 amino acids (aa), the large size of Pfs230 necessitates the use of sub-fragments as vaccine immunogens. Therefore, determination of which regions induce functional

Photocatalytic Redox Reactions for In‐Source Peptide Fragmentation [PDF]

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, 2009
AbstractIn‐source oxidation: In‐source photocatalytic redox reactions for inducing peptide fragmentation are achieved on a TiO2‐derived target plate during laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry in the presence of samples and glucose acting as both an electron donor and a hole conductor (see scheme).magnified imageIn‐source photocatalytic redox ...
