Influence of Amino Acid Substitutions in Capsid Proteins of Coxsackievirus B5 on Free Chlorine and Thermal Inactivation

Tamar Kohn, Shotaro Torii, Aleksandar Antanasijevic

The sensitivity of enteroviruses to disinfectants varies among genetically similar variants and coincides with amino acid changes in capsid proteins, although the effect of individual substitutions remains unknown. Here, we employed reverse genetics to inv ...

Obesity-associated deficits in inhibitory control are phenocopied to mice through gut microbiota changes in one-carbon and aromatic amino acids metabolic pathways

Xavier Fernandez-Real Girona

Background Inhibitory control (IC) is critical to keep long-term goals in everyday life. Bidirectional relationships between IC deficits and obesity are behind unhealthy eating and physical exercise habits. ...

Pivotal role of the redox-active tyrosine in driving the water splitting catalyzed by photosystem II

Leonardo Guidoni, Daniele Narzi

Photosynthetic water oxidation is catalyzed by the Mn4Ca cluster in photosystem II (PSII). The nearby redox-active tyrosine (Y-Z) serves as a direct electron acceptor of the Mn4Ca cluster and it forms a low-barrier H-bond (LBHB) with a neighboring histidin ...

Mechanism(s) of electron transfer and metabolic changes during iron reduction by Clostridium acetobutylicum

Cornelia List

Microorganisms catalyze many of the redox transformations driving the iron cycle in the geosphere. For instance, iron cycling includes the reduction of solid-phase and soluble ferric iron (Fe(III)) to ferrous iron (Fe(II)). However, in order to reduce soli ...

Histidine Targeting Heterobimetallic Ruthenium(II)-Gold(I) Complexes

Paul Joseph Dyson, Daniel Ortiz Trujillo, Lucinda Kate Batchelor

Inspired by the preferential, allosteric binding of RAPTA-T and auranofin to the nucleosome core particle, we describe the design and synthesis of a series of heterobimetallic ruthenium(II)-gold(I) complexes with varying spacer lengths ranging from four to ...

Understanding the interactions of diruthenium anticancer agents with amino acids

Paul Joseph Dyson, Alexey Nazarov, Christian Hartinger

The dinuclear anticancer agents 1,n-bis{chlorido3-(oxo-kappa O)-2-methyl-4-(1H)-pyridinonato-kappa O4-ruthenium(II)}alkane (PyRu2n) exhibit high antiproliferative activity in human cancer cell. Reactivity studies with DNA and protein rev ...

High Susceptibility of Histidine to Charge Solvation Revealed by Cold Ion Spectroscopy

Oleg Boyarkine, Vladimir Kopysov, Aleksandr Pereverzev

Histidine remained the last aromatic amino acid for which the intrinsic spectroscopic properties and structures were obscure. We measured the UV and IR spectra of protonated histidine, isolated in the gas phase, using photofragmentation cold ion spectrosco ...

Photo-induced dynamics of the heme centers in cytochrome bc(1)

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Andre Al Haddad, Adrien Alexis Paul Chauvet

The ultrafast response of cytochrome bc1 is investigated for the first time, via transient absorption spectroscopy. The distinct redox potentials of both c(1)- and b-hemes allow for a clear differentiation of their respective signals. We find that while th ...

Improved biocompatibility of polyethylenimine (PEI) as a gene carrier by conjugating urocanic acid: In vitro and in vivo

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Irina Krier

Polyethylenimine (PEI) is a promising gene carrier among polymeric vectors because of its high transfection efficiency, buffering capacity, which is responsible for its escape from endosomes, facility of modification, reasonable price and wide range of mol ...

Fast Proton Exchange in Histidine: Measurement of Rate Constants through Indirect Detection by NMR Spectroscopy

Geoffrey Bodenhausen

Owing to its imidazole side chain, histidine participates in various processes such as enzyme catalysis, pH regulation, metal binding, and phosphorylation. The determination of exchange rates of labile protons for such a system is important for understandi ...

Phage Pierces the Host Cell Membrane with the Iron-Loaded Spike

Petr Leiman, Mikhail Shneyder, Christopher Browning

Bacteriophages with contractile tails and the bacterial type VI secretion system have been proposed to use a special protein to create an opening in the host cell membrane during infection. These proteins have a modular architecture but invariably contain ...

Revisiting Ether-Derivatized Imidazolium-Based Ionic Liquids

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Zhaofu Fei, Wee Han Ang, Dongbin Zhao

A series of ether-derivatized imidazolium halides have been prepd. and characterized. Contrary to literature reports, they are all cryst. solids and have m.ps. well above room temp. (50-100 °C). Single crystals of the imidazolium salts, obtained in situ by ...

Sulfide-binding hemoglobins: effects of mutations on active-site flexibility

Majed Chergui

The dynamics of Hb I (HbI) from the clam Lucina pectinata, from wild-type sperm whale (SW) myoglobin, and from the L29F/H64Q/V68F triple mutant of SW, both unligated and bound to hydrogen sulfide (H2S), have been studied in mol. dynamics simulations. Featu ...
