Design of 8-mer peptides that block <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> toxin A in intestinal cells

COMMUNICATIONS BIOLOGY, 6(1).

By: S. Sarma n, C. Catella n, E. San Pedro*, X. Xiao n, D. Durmusoglu n, S. Menegatti n, N. Crook n, S. Magness*, C. Hall n

TL;DR: An approach that combines a Pep tide B inding D esign (PepBD) algorithm, molecular-level simulations, a rapid screening assay, and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) measurements to develop peptide inhibitors that block Toxin A in colon epithelial cells is described. (via Semantic Scholar)

Computational Design and Experimental Validation of ACE2-Derived Peptides as SARS-CoV-2 Receptor Binding Domain Inhibitors

Sarma, S., Herrera, S. M., Xiao, X., Hudalla, G. A., & Hall, C. K. (2022, October 11). JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY B, Vol. 10.

By: S. Sarma n, S. Herrera*, X. Xiao n, G. Hudalla* & C. Hall n

MeSH headings : Humans; Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2; SARS-CoV-2; Spike Glycoprotein, Coronavirus / chemistry; Pandemics; Tryptophan / metabolism; COVID-19; Protein Binding; Peptides / metabolism
TL;DR: Data show that while relatively short unstructured peptides can bind to SARS-CoV-2 RBD with moderate affinity, they are incapable of outcompeting the strong interactions between RBD and ACE2. (via Semantic Scholar)

Sequence patterns and signatures: Computational and experimental discovery of amyloid-forming peptides

PNAS NEXUS, 1(5).

By: X. Xiao n, A. Robang*, S. Sarma n, J. Le*, M. Helmicki*, M. Lambert*, R. Guerrero-Ferreira*, J. Arboleda-Echavarria*, A. Paravastu*, C. Hall n

author keywords: peptide assembly design; discontinuous molecular dynamics; amyloid-forming peptides; fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy; transmission electron microscopy
TL;DR: Experimental results from Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thioflavin T (ThT) fluorescence, circular dichroism (CD), and transmission electron microscopy, indicate that all the peptides predicted to assemble in silico assemble into antiparallel β-sheet nanofibers in a concentration-dependent manner.
