Designed Protein-Protein Association

Science, 2008
The analysis of natural contact interfaces between protein subunits and between proteins has disclosed some general rules governing their association. We have applied these rules to produce a number of novel assemblies, demonstrating that a given protein can be engineered to form contacts at various points of its surface.

Protein design

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 1991
Several noteworthy papers have been published in the past year in which the creation of interesting novel proteins, either by de novo design or the redesign of existing proteins, has been reported. Highlights include the successful design of proteins for binding specific ligands.

Synthetic Proteins: Designer proteins

Current Biology, 1994
Attempts to synthesize de novo proteins with particular properties should improve our understanding of the long-range cooperative interactions that are so crucial to the structure and function of proteins.

Bioinformatics and Protein Design

Current Pharmaceutical Biotechnology, 2002
Traditionally, the development of drugs has focused on small molecule therapeutics. However, with recent advances in recombinant protein technology the potential of proteins as therapeutics is starting to be realized. Already there are protein drugs on the market, including naturally occurring proteins, engineered proteins and proteins introduced into ...

Designed Protein Origami

2016
Proteins are highly perfected natural molecular machines, owing their properties to the complex tertiary structures with precise spatial positioning of different functional groups that have been honed through millennia of evolutionary selection. The prospects of designing new molecular machines and structural scaffolds beyond the limits of natural ...

Helical protein design

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 1998
It is now possible to design small proteins capable of folding into compact structures with well-packed cores. Given the present state of knowledge of protein folding and design, it is possible to extract a set of engineering guidelines that may assist in future de novo protein design.

The designability of protein structures

Journal of Molecular Graphics and Modelling, 2001
It has been noted that natural proteins adapt only a limited number of folds. Several researchers have investigated why and how nature has selected this small number of folds. Using simple models of protein folding, we demonstrate systematically that there is a "designability principle" behind nature's selection of protein folds. The designability of a

Combinatorial protein design

Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2002
Combinatorial protein libraries permit the examination of a wide range of sequences. Such methods are being used for denovo design and to investigate the determinants of protein folding. The exponentially large number of possible sequences, however, necessitates restrictions on the diversity of sequences in a combinatorial library.

Protein engineering and design

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. B, Biological Sciences, 1989
Abstract Rapid advances in site-directed mutagenesis and total gene synthesis combined with new expression systems in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have provided the molecular biologist with tools for modification of existing proteins to improve catalytic activity, stability and selectivity, for construction of chimeric molecules ...

Designing proteins with cavities

Science, 2017
Protein Design In de novo protein design, creating custom-tailored binding sites is a particular challenge because these sites often involve nonideal backbone structures. For example, curved b sheets are a common ligand binding motif. Marcos et al.
