Photoswitchable Peptides as Molecular Tools to Encode Structural Order and Disorder in Intracellular Assemblies. [PDF]
Angew Chem Int Ed EnglWe present a photoswitchable peptide conjugate which exhibits isomerism‐dependent self‐assembly: the planar trans‐isomer assembles into well‐ordered nanofibers while the non‐planar cis‐isomer yields disordered aggregates. Our study offers a direct visualization on the effects of structure formation inside living cells.

Optical Control of Translation with a Puromycin-Photoswitch
bioRxiv, 2022 Translation is an elementary cellular process that involves a large number of factors interacting in a concerted fashion with the ribosome. Numerous natural products have emerged that interfere with ribosomal function, such as puromycin, which mimics an ...

Photoswitchable mixed valence [PDF]
Chemical Society Reviews, 2012 For a molecular electronics technology to be fully serviceable, switching functions will be indispensable. Specifically, it will be desirable to control the conductivity of a given molecule using an external stimulus. This tutorial review discusses photoswitchable mixed valence systems that are comprised of a reversibly photoisomerizable bridging unit ...

Synthesis of 4-substituted azopyridine-functionalized Ni(II)-porphyrins as molecular spin switches
Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2020 We present the synthesis and the spin switching efficiencies of Ni(II)-porphyrins substituted with azopyridines as covalently attached photoswitchable ligands. The molecules are designed in such a way that the azopyridines coordinate to the Ni ion if the

Short Photoswitchable Antibacterial Peptides
ChemMedChem, 2020 AbstractThree photoswitchable tetrapeptides, based on a known synthetic antibacterial, were designed and synthesized to determine activity against Staphylococcus aureus. Each peptide contains an azobenzene photoswitch incorporated into either the N‐terminal side chain (1), C‐terminal side chain (2), or the C‐terminus (3) to allow reversible switching ...
