Solution structure and functional characterization of human plasminogen kringle 5.

Nov 2009 The ligand binding properties of the kringle 5 (K5) domain of human plasminogen have been investigated via intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence. The oleic acid (OA) affinity for K5 was quantified, yielding an association constant K(a) approximately ... Read more...

Role of tryptophan-tryptophan interactions in Trpzip beta-hairpin formation, structure, and stability.

Nov 2009 A series of beta-hairpin peptides based on variations of the TrpZip2 sequence, SWTWENGKWTWK, of Cochran and co-workers were studied using electronic circular dichroism (CD) and infrared (IR) spectra by varying temperature and pH. Selected tryptophan ... Read more...

A library of fluorescent peptides for exploring the substrate specificities of prolyl isomerases.

Nov 2009 To fully explore the substrate specificities of prolyl isomerases, we synthesized a library of 20 tetrapeptides that are labeled with a 2-aminobenzoyl (Abz) group at the amino terminus and a p-nitroanilide (pNA) group at the carboxy terminus. In ... Read more...
