Total synthesis and antimalarial activity of symplostatin 4.
Trent Conroy, Jin T Guo, Nicholas H Hunt and Richard J Payne
Abstract
The first total synthesis of symplostatin 4, a marine cyanobacterium-derived natural product, is described. Notable features of the route include the efficient preparation of three key fragments and final assembly to the natural product via sequential imide and amide couplings. Sympl... | PMID: 21049908

Improving protein pharmacokinetics by engineering erythrocyte affinity.
Stephan Kontos and Jeffrey A Hubbell
Abstract
We sought to develop an active method to increase the circulation half-life of proteins by binding to erythrocytes in blood. Screening a naive phage-displayed peptide library against whole mouse erythrocytes yielded a 12 amino acid peptide (ERY1) that binds the erythrocyte surface with high specific... | PMID: 20831257

Functional proteomic analysis for regulatory T cell surveillance of the HIV-1-infected macrophage.
Xiuyan Huang, David K Stone, Fang Yu, Yaoying Zeng and Howard E Gendelman
Abstract
We report that Treg promotes such neuroprotection by an even broader range of mechanisms than previously seen including inhibition of virus release, killing infected MP, and inducing phenotypic cell switches. Changes in individual Treg-induced macrophage proteins were quantified by iTRAQ labeling fo... | PMID: 20954747

NMR solution structure of the N-terminal domain of hERG and its interaction with the S4-S5 linker.
Qingxin Li, Shovanlal Gayen, Angela Shuyi Chen, Qiwei Huang, Manfred Raida and Congbao Kang
Abstract
The human Ether-à-go-go Related Gene (hERG) potassium channel mediates the rapid delayed rectifier current (IKr) in the cardiac action potential. Mutations in the 135 amino acid residue N-terminal domain (NTD) cause channel dysfunction or mis-translocation. To study the structure of NTD, it was ove... | PMID: 21055387

Abstract
We have designed several peptidomimetics to inhibit HER2-mediated signaling for cell growth. One of the compounds (HERP5, Arg-beta Naph-Phe) exhibited antiproliferative activity with IC(50) values in the micromolar-to-nanomolar range in breast cancer cell lines. Binding of fluorescently labeled HERP... | PMID: 20919746

Abstract
The proteome and peptidome are defined as the set of proteins and peptides present in a tissue or other biological sample. In most proteomic studies, only abundant proteins are detected and, although these are important molecules, they are often well-studied structural proteins. A nu... | PMID: 20848247

Abstract
We review the data from clinical trials that have assessed the mechanism of action, the efficacy, and safety of exenatide and liraglutide, two analogues already available for therapy.

Polypeptide in the chaperonin cage partly protrudes out and then folds inside or escapes outside.
Fumihiro Motojima and Masasuke Yoshida
Abstract
We found that, in the rate-limiting intermediate of a chaperonin reaction, the unfolded polypeptide in the cage partly protrudes through a narrow space near the GroEL/GroES interface. Then, the entire polypeptide is released either into the cage or to the outside medium. The former adopts a native s... | PMID: 20959808

Selective inhibition of ADAR2-catalyzed editing of the serotonin 2c receptor pre-mRNA by a helix-threading peptide.
Nicole T Schirle, Rena A Goodman, Malathy Krishnamurthy and Peter A Beal
Abstract
RNA editing by adenosine deamination is a form of epigenetic control of gene expression wherein the ADAR enzymes convert adenosine to inosine in RNA often changing the meaning of codons. The pre-mRNA for the 2c subtype of serotonin receptor (5-HT2cR) is shown here to support small molecule binding n... | PMID: 20820662

Probing the mechanisms of electron capture dissociation mass spectrometry with nitrated peptides.
Andrew W Jones and Helen J Cooper
Abstract
We have shown that the presence of 3-nitrotyrosine within a peptide sequence severely depletes the peptide backbone fragments typically observed following electron capture dissociation (ECD) mass spectrometry. Instead, ECD of nitrated peptides is characterised by abundant losses of small neutrals (h... | PMID: 20830387
