dc.description.abstracteng | In this work, the novel simplified SNARE-mimicking systems consisting of TMD/linker segments of the natural membrane-bound SNARE proteins (syntaxin-1A and synaptobrevin 2) with a nucleobase functionalized β-peptide (β-PNA) recognition motif were designed and synthesized. The β-PNAs allow antiparallel orientation and therefore, a fusion mechanism is addressed, that differs from the native SNARE situation. Nevertheless, the artificial TMD/linker/β-PNA constructs are surprisingly efficient in mediating membrane fusion. The β-PNA recognition motif with the linear and conformational rigid 14-helix backbone offers an especially interesting option of distance control between the vesicles.
This system offers a powerful tool to control the fusion state by using different length of β-PNA. The extended β-PNA leads to hemifusion state while the shortened one induces full fusion. | de |
