Abstract

We report a structural study on the membrane binding of ovispirin using 2D IR line shape analysis, isotope labeling, and molecular dynamics simulations. Ovispirin is an antibiotic polypeptide that binds to the surfaces of membranes as an alpha-helix. By resolving individual backbone vibrational modes (amide I) using 1-(13)C=(18)O labeling, we measured the 2D IR line shapes for 15 of the 18 residues in this peptide. A comparison of the line shapes reveals an oscillation in the inhomogeneous line width that has a period equal to that of an alpha-helix (3.6 amino acids). The periodic trend is caused by the asymmetric environment of the membrane bilayer that exposes one face of the alpha-helix to much stronger environmental electrostatic forces than the other. We compare our experimental results to 2D IR line shapes calculated using the lowest free energy structure identified from molecular dynamics simulations. These simulations predict a periodic trend similar to the experiment and lead us to conclude that ovispirin lies in the membrane just below the headgroups, is tilted, and may be kinked. Besides providing insight into the antibiotic mechanism of ovispirin, our procedure provides an infrared method for studying peptide and pr...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.
