Synthesis of Modified Biomolecules to Investigate Neuronal Processes
(2021-04-30)Action potentials are an essential process for signal transmission in excitable cells. At chemical synapses, the action potential triggers the release of neurotransmitters from synaptic vesicles to transmit the signal to ... -
Modification of transmembrane peptides to probe SNARE-induced membrane fusion and cross-presentation of membrane-buried epitopes
(2021-02-19)Membrane proteins play an important role in cellular function as receptors, transporters, anchors, and catalysts. Despite constituting 20-30% of the human proteome only 3 % of all characterized proteins are membrane proteins ... -
Hybrids of SNARE Transmembrane Domains and Artificial Recognition Motifs as Membrane Fusion Inducing Model Peptides
(2018-03-13)Protein mediated fusion of membranes is a crucial biological process. For instance, SNARE (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor (NSF) attachment protein receptor) proteins are involved in neuronal exocytosis. However, ... -
Synthesis and Investigation of Nucleobase Functionalized β-Peptide as SNAREs Model System for Membranefusion
(2015-07-22)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) ...
