Journal ArticleDOI
Carbonic Anhydrase as a Model for Biophysical and Physical-Organic Studies of Proteins and Protein–Ligand Binding
Vijay M. Krishnamurthy,George K. Kaufman,Adam R. Urbach,Irina Gitlin,Katherine L. Gudiksen,Douglas B. Weibel,George M. Whitesides +6 more
TL;DR: Carbonic anhydrase is a protein that is especially well-suited to serve as a model in many types of studies in biophysics, bioanalysis, the physical-organic chemistry of inhibitor design, and medicinal chemistry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Charge-mediated recognition of N-terminal tryptophan in aqueous solution by a synthetic host.
TL;DR: Analysis of the nine indole-containing compounds suggests that peptide recognition is mediated by the electrostatic charge(s) proximal to the indole, and that the mode of binding is consistent for these compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sequence-specific recognition and cooperative dimerization of N-terminal aromatic peptides in aqueous solution by a synthetic host.
TL;DR: The peptide sequence selectivity and positively cooperative dimerization reported here are, to the best of the authors' knowledge, unprecedented for synthetic hosts in aqueous solution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular recognition of insulin by a synthetic receptor.
Jordan M. Chinai,Alexander B. Taylor,Lisa M. Ryno,Nicholas D. Hargreaves,Christopher A. Morris,P. John Hart,Adam R. Urbach +6 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest that site-selective recognition is based on the properties inherent to a protein terminus, including the unique chemical epitope presented by the terminal residue and the greater freedom of the terminus to unfold, like the end of a ball of string, to accommodate binding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three-Dimensional Self-Assembly of Metallic Rods with Submicron Diameters Using Magnetic Interactions
TL;DR: This work provides a simple demonstration that magnetic interactions between ferromagnetic objects can direct and stabilize the formation of ordered, 3D structures by self-assembly.
