ABSTRACT Background and Objectives The recent trend towards healthy food choices and sustainable agriculture has revived interest in underutilized wheat species such as emmer, einkorn, and spelt. Given these developments, the objective of the study was to compare the differences in chemical composition and digestibility characteristics among ...

Optimization of CEST MRI Reporter Protein Design Using Cation‐Pi Networks
A novel engineering approach can produce reporter proteins for cell and viral therapy tracking with unique magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signatures, detectable with chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST). We discover how cation‐π interactions between amino acid groups can help us fine‐tune magnetic resonance properties for noninvasive ...

Late‐Stage Modification of Halotryptophan‐Containing Peptides Via Negishi Cross‐Coupling
Negishi cross‐coupling provides access to the late‐stage functionalization of bromotryptophan‐containing peptides under comparatively mild conditions and is applicable to a range of peptide substrates in the investigated model systems. The examined alkyl iodides and variation of N‐terminal residues demonstrate the feasibility of the transformation in a

A modular, de novo α/β‐peptide design strategy allows fine‐tuning of ligand properties, resulting in multivalent ligands that simultaneously target separate binding sites on the protein surface. ABSTRACT Protein‐protein interactions that regulate gene expression in the nucleus are increasingly recognized as potential therapeutic targets but present ...

ABSTRACT Cooperativity between cytoskeletal proteins is crucial for spatiotemporal coordination in biological processes, like oogenesis. In mammalian and Drosophila oogenesis, proper assembly and function of actin networks require coordination between actin assembly factors Spire and formins, as well as actin‐associated proteins like myosins and Rab ...
