In neurodegenerative diseases, a wide range of amyloid proteins or peptides such as amyloid-beta and alpha-synuclein fail to keep native functional conformations, followed by misfolding and self-assembling into a diverse array of aggregates. The aggregates ...

Measuring the high-affinity binding of proteins to liposome membranes remains a challenge. Here, we show an ultrasensitive and direct detection of protein binding to liposome membranes using high throughput second harmonic scattering (SHS). Perfringolysin ...

Digital data storage is a growing need for our society and finding alternative solutions than those based on silicon or magnetic tapes is a challenge in the era of “big data.” The recent development of polymers that can store information at the molecular l ...

An efficient immune system must provide protection against a broad range of pathogens without causing excessive collateral tissue damage. While immune effectors have been well characterized, we know less about the resilience mechanisms protecting the host ...

Evolution has found countless ways to transport material across cells and cellular compartments separated by membranes. Protein assemblies are the cornerstone for the formation of channels and pores that enable this regulated passage of molecules in and ou ...

Systems and methods for data storage and readout using hybrid nucleic acid- polymeric molecules are herein disclosed. A molecular data storage medium is presented comprising a header and a footer, each comprising or consisting of at least one unit of a fir ...

In the era of "big data" finding solutions for data storage alternative to those based on silicon or magnetic tapes is an urgent need for our society. The development of polymers that can store information at the molecular level has opened up new opportuni ...

Protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) play a crucial role in countless biological processes, profoundly modulating protein properties on both spatial and temporal scales. Protein PTMs have also emerged as reliable biomarkers for several diseases. ...

Nanopore sensing is a powerful single-molecule approach for the detection of biomolecules. Recent studies have demonstrated that aerolysin is a promising candidate to improve the accuracy of DNA sequencing and to develop novel single-molecule proteomic str ...

Provided herein are aerolysin polypeptides and/or mutant aerolysin monomers comprising modified amino acid sequences that could have improved substrate analyte, such as (poly)nucleotide and peptide, improved reading properties such as enhanced substrate an ...

Single-cell profiling methods have had a profound impact on the understanding of cellular heterogeneity. While genomes and transcriptomes can be explored at the single-cell level, single-cell profiling of proteomes is not yet established. Here we describe ...

The invention relates to use of an aerolysin nanopore for the discrimination of different protein isoforms bearing different post-translational modifications (PTMs) and to methods for detecting adverse medical conditions associated with the presence of pep ...

Hsp70 chaperones are central components of the cellular network that ensures the structural quality of proteins. Despite crucial roles in processes such as protein disaggregation and protein translocation into organelles, their physical mechanism of action ...

Aerolysin polypeptides and/or mutant aerolysin monomers include modified amino acid sequences that could have improved substrate analyte, such as (poly)nucleotide and peptide, improved reading properties such as enhanced substrate analyte capture and impro ...
