Semisynthesis of carboxy‐terminal fragments of thermolysin
Enzyme‐catalyzed synthesis of two polypeptide fragments, one of which is obtained by chemical synthesis, in the presence of proteolytic enzymes and in aqueous organic solvents constitutes a convenient procedure for the synthesis of proteins and their analogs.

Abstract The design of proteins with desired biophysical properties, such as high solubility and low aggregation propensity, is crucial for various biotechnological and biomedical applications. While deep learning‐based methods like ProteinMPNN have shown remarkable success in protein sequence design, their direct output may not always exhibit optimal ...

Substrate-dependent Activation of Thermolysin by Salt [PDF]
Salt-activation of thermolysin was examined using a positively charged fluorescent substrate, (7-methoxycoumarin-4-yl)acetyl-L-Pro-L-Leu-Gly-L-Leu-[N(3)-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-L-2,3-diaminopropionyl]-L-Ala-L-Arg-NH(2) [MOCAc-PLGL(Dpa)AR]. Thermolysin activity increased in a biphasic exponential fashion and was 40 times higher in the presence of 4 M NaCl ...

Evolution of N‐terminal mechanical lability as a determinant for Type III secretion
Abstract Many Gram‐negative pathogens critically depend on the Type III secretion system (T3SS) to inject effector proteins into host cells for colonization. Because the channel of the T3SS is narrow (~2 nm), effectors must be unfolded for secretion.

Water influences ligand binding to a protein. Replacing, picking up, or modulating water dynamics restructures the water arrangement and affects the enthalpic and entropic signatures of binding. Whether the two properties add up or cancel each other out determines the expected ligand affinity enhancement.

Multidrug‐resistant Vibrio infections are rising rapidly and threaten coastal populations worldwide. This study introduces D‐zp37, a chirality‐engineered antimicrobial peptide with exceptional potency against resistant Vibrio species. D‐zp37 kills planktonic cells, blocks mixed‐species biofilms, disrupts essential bacterial stress responses, and shows ...

Effects of Radiation Damage on Metal-Binding Sites in Thermolysin
Radiation damage is an inherent problem in macromolecular crystallography because it impairs the diffraction quality of crystals and produces inaccurate structural information.
