Histidylated Lipid-modified Sendai Viral Envelopes Mediate Enhanced Membrane Fusion and Potentiate Targeted Gene Delivery

TL;DR: The molecular mechanism associated with the increased membrane fusion induced by LH has been addressed in the light of fusion-competent conformational change in F protein and resulted in a highly efficient gene delivery system specific for liver cells in culture and in whole animals.

Importance of secondary structural specificity determinants in protein folding: Insertion of a native β-sheet sequence into an α-helical coiled-coil

TL;DR: The results showed that not only did the nucleating helices of the coiled‐coil on either end of the cassette fail to nucleate the β‐sheet cassette to fold with an α‐helical conformation, but also the entire chimeric protein became a random coil.

Photoinduced charge transfer in helical polypeptides

TL;DR: A review of the various approaches to charge entrainment in synthetic polypeptides is presented in this paper with an attention to heliogenic peptides and the mediation of photoinduced charge entraining.

Structural and functional analysis of the GerD spore germination protein of Bacillus species.

TL;DR: It is proposed that GerD mediates clustering of germination proteins in the inner membrane of dormant spores and thus promotes the rapid and cooperative germination response to nutrients.
