Transport and signaling via the amino acid binding site of the yeast Gap1 amino acid transceptor.

Nat. Chem. Biol. 5 , 45-52, (2009)

Transporter-related nutrient sensors, called transceptors, mediate nutrient activation of signaling pathways through the plasma membrane. The mechanism of action of transporting and nontransporting transceptors is unknown. We have screened 319 amino acid anal...

Differential mobility spectrometry of isomeric protonated dipeptides: modifier and field effects on ion mobility and stability.

Anal. Chem. 83 , 3470-3476, (2011)

The ability to resolve isomeric protonated dipeptides was investigated with the new technique of differential ion mobility mass spectrometry that uses "modifier" molecules to enhance differential mobility. Two pairs of protonated peptides [glycine-alanine (Gl...

Infrared spectroscopy of the alanine dipeptide analog in liquid water with DFT-MD. Direct evidence for P(II)/beta conformations.

Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 12 , 10198-10209, (2010)

Following our previous work [J. Phys. Chem. B. Lett., 2009, 113, 10059], DFT-based molecular dynamics (DFTMD) simulations of 2-Ala peptide (i.e. Ac-Ala-NHMe dialanine peptide analog with methyl group caps at the extremities) immersed in liquid water at room t...

Water-mediated conformations of the alanine dipeptide as revealed by distributed umbrella sampling simulations, quantum mechanics based calculations, and experimental data.

J. Phys. Chem. B 115 , 4880-4886, (2011)

An exhaustive umbrella sampling simulation of the alanine dipeptide in solution is reported. The presence of stable Y conformations in solution is assessed by both quantum calculations and experimental data from X-ray and NMR protein-solved structures availab...

Selectivity of quadruplex DNA stationary phases toward amino acids in homodipeptides and alanyl dipeptides.

Electrophoresis 25 , 1230-1236, (2004)

Series of dipeptides, including homodipeptides and alanyl dipeptides, were separated using quadruplex (G-quartet) DNA stationary phases in open-tubular capillary electrochromatography (OTCEC). The stationary phases were constructed by covalently attaching the...

Three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship analyses of beta-lactam antibiotics and tripeptides as substrates of the mammalian H+/peptide cotransporter PEPT1.

J. Med. Chem. 48 , 4410-9, (2005)

The utilization of the membrane transport protein PEPT1 as a drug delivery system is a promising strategy to enhance the oral bioavailability of drugs. Since very little is known about the substrate binding site of PEPT1, computational methods are a meaningfu...
