Biochem/physiol Actions

Short poly-L-lysines polypeptides such as trilysine (lys3), tetralysine (tetra-L-lysine, lys4) and pentalysine (penta-L-lysine, lys5) are cationic moieties that may be used in the construction of gene delivery vectors and DNA nanoparticles.

Electrospray Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry, ion mobility spectrometry, and computational methods were utilized to characterize the complexes between lysine or pentalysine with three prototypical host molecules: alpha-cyclodextrin (alpha-CD), cucurbit[5]uril (CB[5]), and cucurbit[6]uril (CB[6]). Ion mobility measurements show

The binding of pentalysine to phospholipid vesicles depends in a sigmoidal manner on the mole fraction of acidic lipid in the vesicles. A simple analysis demonstrates that this apparent cooperativity is probably due to both the reduction of dimensionality that

Recent transcription profiling studies have revealed an unanticipatedly large proportion of antisense transcription across eukaryotic and bacterial genomes. However, the extent and significance of antisense transcripts is controversial partly because experimental artifacts are suspected. Here, we present a method to

It has been shown that chronic stress-induced depression is associated with exaggerated inflammatory response in the brain. Alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (α7nAChRs) regulate the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway, but the role of cholinergic signaling and α7nAChR in chronic stress has not

The interaction of cationic pentalysine with phospholipid membranes was studied by using phosphorus and deuterium Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) of headgroup deuterated dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and dimyristoyl phosphatidylserine (DMPS). In the absence of pentalysine, some of the deuterium and phosphorus
