Multicomponent synthesis of artificial nucleases and their RNase and DNase activity
The synthesis of new, artificial ribonucleases containing two amino acid residues connected by an aliphatic linker has been developed. Target molecules were synthesized via a catalytic three-component Ugi reaction from aliphatic diisocyanides ...

On the prevalence of bridged macrocyclic pyrroloindolines formed in regiodivergent alkylations of tryptophan. [PDF]
A Friedel-Crafts alkylation is described that efficiently transforms tryptophan-containing peptides into macrocycles of varying ring connectivity. Factors are surveyed that influence the distribution of regioisomers, with a focus on indole C3-alkylations

Backbone chemical shift assignments of human 14-3-3$\sigma$ [PDF]
14-3-3 proteins are a group of seven dimeric adapter proteins that exert their biological function by interacting with hundreds of phosphorylated proteins, thus influencing their sub-cellular localization, activity or stability in the cell.

Covalent Peptide‐Based N‐Myc/Aurora‐A Inhibitors Bearing Sulfonyl Fluoride Warheads [PDF]
N‐Myc‐derived peptidomimetics bearing aryl sulfonyl fluoride warheads were shown to act as effective N‐Myc/Aurora‐A PPI inhibitors, selectively labelling Aurora‐A in a recognition‐directed manner. ABSTRACT Orthosteric inhibition of the N‐Myc/Aurora‐A protein–protein interaction (PPI) represents a potential mechanism by which degradation of N‐Myc can be

Protein N-terminal methyltransferase 1 (NTMT1) recognizes a unique N-terminal X-P-K/R motif (X represents any amino acid other than D/E) and transfers 1–3 methyl groups to the N-terminal region of its substrates.

The Synthetic Amphipathic Peptidomimetic LTX109 Is a Potent Fungicide That Disturbs Plasma Membrane Integrity in a Sphingolipid Dependent Manner. [PDF]
The peptidomimetic LTX109 (arginine-tertbutyl tryptophan-arginine-phenylethan) was previously shown to have antibacterial properties. Here, we investigated the activity of this novel antimicrobial peptidomimetic on the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
