Book excerpt: During the course of evolution, an imbalance was created between the rate of vertebrate genetic adaptation and that of the lower forms of living organisms, such as bacteria and viruses. This imbalance has given the latter the advantage of generating, relatively quickly, molecules with unexpected structures and features that carry a threat to vertebrates. To compensate for their weakness, vertebrates have accelerated their own evolutionary processes, not at the level of whole organism, but in specialized cells containing the genes that code for antibody molecules or for T-cell receptors. That is, when an immediate requirement for molecules capable of specific interactions arose, nature has preferred to speed up the mode of Darwinian evolution in pref- ence to any other approach (such as the use of X-ray diffraction studies and computergraphic analysis). Recently, Darwinian rules have been adapted for test tube research, and the concept of selecting molecules having particular characteristics from r- dom pools has been realized in the form of various chemical and biological combinatorial libraries. While working with these libraries, we noticed the interesting fact that when combinatorial libraries of oligopeptides were allowed to interact with different selector proteins, only the actual binding sites of these proteins showed binding properties, whereas the rest of the p- tein surface seemed "inert. " This seemingly common feature of protein- having no extra potential binding sites--was probably selected during evolution in order to minimize nonspecific interactions with the surrounding milieu.
Book Synopsis Combinatorial Library by : Lisa B. English
Download or read book Combinatorial Library written by Lisa B. English and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-02-04 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The continued successes of large- and small-scale genome sequencing projects are increasing the number of genomic targets available for drug d- covery at an exponential rate. In addition, a better understanding of molecular mechanisms—such as apoptosis, signal transduction, telomere control of ch- mosomes, cytoskeletal development, modulation of stress-related proteins, and cell surface display of antigens by the major histocompatibility complex m- ecules—has improved the probability of identifying the most promising genomic targets to counteract disease. As a result, developing and optimizing lead candidates for these targets and rapidly moving them into clinical trials is now a critical juncture in pharmaceutical research. Recent advances in com- natorial library synthesis, purification, and analysis techniques are not only increasing the numbers of compounds that can be tested against each specific genomic target, but are also speeding and improving the overall processes of lead discovery and optimization. There are two main approaches to combinatorial library production: p- allel chemical synthesis and split-and-mix chemical synthesis. These approaches can utilize solid- or solution-based synthetic methods, alone or in combination, although the majority of combinatorial library synthesis is still done on solid support. In a parallel synthesis, all the products are assembled separately in their own reaction vessels or microtiter plates. The array of rows and columns enables researchers to organize the building blocks to be c- bined, and provides an easy way to identify compounds in a particular well.

Book Synopsis Synthetic Combinatorial Peptide Libraries and Their Application in Decoding Biological Interactions by : Michael Cameron Sweeney
Download or read book Synthetic Combinatorial Peptide Libraries and Their Application in Decoding Biological Interactions written by Michael Cameron Sweeney and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The synthesis of peptides was revolutionized by the adoption of solid-phase synthetic techniques. Subsequent improvement, evolution, and refinement of this chemical technique has allowed research into areas of biology not previously accessible with such speed and breadth. Because of the efficiency and flexibility of the chemistry involved in peptide synthesis, libraries representing millions of unique natural, modified, or unnatural peptides can be constructed rapidly and in high enough purity as to obviate the need for purification. In this work, libraries were synthesized for screening against individual protein domains in an effort to both determine the preferred peptidyl binding partner types for each, as well as to establish an optimized, broadly applicable methodology for screening other domains. One of the problems encountered during the development of the screening methodology was the low success-rate of sequence determination for the peptides selected by each domain. Herein we report the successful modification of the peptide ladder mass spectrometry sequencing technique referred to as partial Edman degradation (PED). Success-rates were improved to greater than 90% for full-length sequencing determination of peptide up to 8-mers, even for more difficult phosphotyrosine (pY)-containing peptides. As a result of this improvement, three pY-binding Src Homology 2 (SH2) domains and two N-terminus binding Baculoviral Inhibitor-of-Apoptosis Repeat (BIR) domains were screened against their respective libraries and the preferred ligand types for each was determined. The advantage of sequencing by the PED method became especially clear in the case of the N-terminal SH2 (N-SH2) domain of Src Homology 2 Protien Tyrosine Phosphatase 2 (SHP-2) as previously unidentified sub-classes of binding consensus motifs were distinguishable due to the discreet nature of the sequencing technique. This work demonstrates the usefulness and potential generality of peptide library screening by this method.
Book Synopsis Protein Targeting Protocols by : Roger A. Clegg
Download or read book Protein Targeting Protocols written by Roger A. Clegg and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-02-04 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is by no means a revelation that proteins are not uniformly distributed throughout the cell. As a result, the idea that protein molecules, because of the specificity with which they can engage in interactions with other proteins, may be aimed—via these interactions—at a restricted target, is a fundamental one in contemporary molecular life sciences. The target may be variously c- ceived as a specific molecule, a group of molecules, a structure, or a more generic type of intracellular environment. Because the concept of protein targeting is intuitive rather than expl- itly defined, it has been variously used by different groups of researchers in cell biology, biochemistry, and molecular biology. For those working in the field of intracellular signaling, an influential introduction to the topic was the seminal article by Hubbard & Cohen (TIBS [1993] 18, 172–177), which was based on the work of Cohen’s laboratory on protein phosphatases. Sub- quently, the ideas that they discussed have been further developed and extended by many workers to other key intermediaries in intracellular sign- ing, including protein kinases and a great variety of modulator and adaptor proteins.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the completion of sequencing projects and the advancement of a- lytical tools for protein identification, proteomics—the study of the expressed part of the genome—has become a major region of the burgeoning field of functional genomics. High-resolution 2-D gels can reveal virtually all p- teins present in a cell or tissue at any given time, including posttranslationally modified proteins. Changes in the expression and structure of most cellular proteins caused by differentiation or external stimuli can be displayed and eventually identified using 2-D protein gels. 2-D Proteome Analysis Protocols covers all aspects of the use of 2-D protein electrophoresis for the analysis of biological problems. The contri- tors include many of the leaders in the fields of biochemistry and analytical chemistry who were instrumental in the development of high-resolution 2-D gels, immobilized pH gradients, computer analysis, and mass spectromet- based protein identification methodologies. This book is intended as a benchtop manual and guide both for novices to 2-D gels and for those aficionados who wish to try the newer techniques. Any group using protein biochemistry—especially in the fields of molecular biology, biochemistry, microbiology, and cell biology—should find this book eminently useful. 2-D Proteome Analysis Protocols takes the researcher through the c- plete process of working with 2-D protein gels from making the protein - tract to finally identifying the proteins of interest. It includes protocols for generating 2-D protein extracts from most of the standard model organisms, including bacteria, yeast, nematode, Drosophila, plants, mouse, and human.

Book Synopsis Plant Virology Protocols by : Gary D. Foster
Download or read book Plant Virology Protocols written by Gary D. Foster and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-02-03 with total page 557 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of Plant Virology Protocols is to provide a source of infor- tion to guide the reader through the wide range of methods involved in gen- ating transgenic plants that are resistant to plant viruses. To this end, we have commissioned a wide-ranging list of chapters that will cover the methods required for: plant virus isolation; RNA extraction; cloning coat p- tein genes; introduction of the coat protein gene into the plant genome; and testing transgenic plants for resistance. The book then moves on to treatments of the mechanisms of resistance, the problems encountered with field testing, and key ethical issues surrounding transgenic technology. Although Plant Virology Protocols deals with the cloning and expression of the coat protein gene, the techniques described can be equally applied to other viral genes and nucleotide sequences, many of which have also been shown to afford protection when introduced into plants. The coat protein has, however, been the most widely applied, and as such has been selected to illustrate the techniques involved. Plant Virology Protocols has been divided into six major sections, c- taining 55 chapters in total.
