Peptide assemblies are ideal components for eco‐friendly optoelectronic energy harvesting devices due to their intrinsic biocompatibility, ease of fabrication, and flexible functionalization. However, to date, their practical applications have been limited due to the difficulty in obtaining stable, high‐performance devices. Here, it is shown that the tryptophan‐based simplest peptide cyclo‐glycine‐tryptophan (cyclo‐GW) forms mechanically robust (elastic modulus up to 24.0 GPa) and thermally stable up to 370 °C monoclinic crystals, due to a supramolecular packing combining dense parallel β‐sheet hydrogen bonding and herringbone edge‐to‐face aromatic interactions. The directional and extensive driving forces further confer unique optical properties, including aggregation‐induced blue emission and unusual stable photoluminescence. Moreover, the crystals produce a high and sustained open‐circuit voltage (1.2 V) due to a high piezoelectric coefficient of 14.1 pC N?1. These findings demonstrate the feasibility of utilizing self‐assembling peptides for fabrication of biointegrated microdevices that combine high structural stability, tailored optoelectronics, and significant energy harvesting properties. 相似文献

2,5-Diketopiperazines (2,5-DKPs) have been found to occur in a wide range of food and beverages, and display an array of chemesthetic effects (bitter, astringent, metallic, and umami) that can contribute to the taste of a variety of foods. These smallest cyclic peptides also occur as natural products and have been found to display a variety of bioactivities from antibacterial, antifungal, to anthroprotective effects and have the potential to be used in the development of new functional foods. An overview of the synthesis of these small chiral molecules and their molecular properties is presented. The occurrence, taste, and bioactivity of all simple naturally occurring 2,5-DKPs to date have been reviewed and those found in food from yeasts, fungi, and bacteria that have been used in food preparation or contamination, as well as metabolites of sweeteners and antibiotics added to food are also reviewed. 相似文献

将高温高压技术应用于环(组氨酸-脯氨酸)二肽(cyclo(His-Pro),CHP)的制备。以二肽甲酯盐酸盐为原料,采用高温高压辅助环化法在水中制备CHP,通过单因素试验考察了各种反应变量如压力、时间、溶液pH值以及底物质量浓度对CHP产率的影响,采用正交试验对高温高压辅助环化工艺条件进行优化。采用超高效液相色谱法和电喷雾质谱技术对产物中的CHP进行定量和定性分析。结果表明,最佳的反应条件为:反应压力0.20 MPa、反应时间3.5 h、溶液pH 6.0、底物质量浓度15 mg/mL。在此条件下可以得到较高产率(91.35%)的CHP,并且反应中没有观察到消旋。与传统的甲醇回流法相比,本研究的环化方法省时、高效、环保,并且能够得到较高的产率,同时产物没有发生消旋。 相似文献

The dimethylallyl transferase AnaPT from Neosartorya fischeri is involved in the biosynthesis of acetylaszonalenin and catalyses the regioselective and stereospecific C3α‐prenylation of (R)‐benzodiazepinedione in the presence of dimethylallyl diphosphate. This enzyme also converts several tryptophan‐containing cyclic dipeptides to C3α‐prenylated indolines. In this study, we demonstrate the geranylation of (R)‐benzodiazepinedione and five other cyclic dipeptides by AnaPT in the presence of geranyl diphosphate (GPP). Interestingly, structure elucidation by NMR and MS analyses revealed that, with GPP, the geranyl moiety is attached to C‐6 or C‐7 rather than C‐3 of the indole ring of the enzyme products. For (R)‐benzodiazepinedione, one dominant C6‐geranylated derivative was obtained, whereas the other five substrates yielded both C6‐ and C7‐geranylated products. Neither acceptance of GPP by a dimethylallyl transferase from the dimethylallyltryptophan synthase superfamily, nor the alkylation shift from C‐3 to the benzene ring of the indole nucleus has been reported previously. 相似文献

Over recent decades, multidrug-resistant pathogens have become a global concern, with WHO even considering it one of the biggest threats to global health, food security, and development today, which led to the search for alternative antibacterial agents. A special class is formed by peptides composed by the diphenylalanine motif whose antibacterial properties result from their supramolecular arrangement into nanotubes. However, several other dipeptides that also form nanotubes have been largely overlooked. Here, we present the antibacterial activity of four dipeptide nanotubes. The results point to diverse mechanisms through which dipeptide nanotubes exert their effect against bacteria. Antibacterial activity was similar for dipeptide nanotubes sufficiently wide to allow water flux while dipeptides displaying smaller channels were inactive. This suggests that two of the tested dipeptides, L-Phe-L-Phe (FF, diphenylalanine) and L-Leu-L-Ser (LS), are pore forming structures able to induce membrane permeation and affect cellular hydration and integrity. Of these two dipeptides, only FF demonstrated potential to inhibit biofilm formation. The amyloid-like nature and hydrophobicity of diphenylalanine assemblies are probably responsible for their adhesion to cell surfaces preventing biofilm formation and bacteria attachment. 相似文献

In this paper, the second part of a systematic study whose aim deals with the influence of the terminal amino acid side chain
on the properties of Nα-lauroyl arginyl dipeptides is reported. Nα-lauroyl arginyl dipeptides that contain an acidic amino
acid (glutamic acid) or a basic amino acid (lysine) as terminal amino acid have been prepared by peptide synthesis methods.
These compounds have been synthesized as methyl esters (cationic surfactants) and free α-carboxylic acids (amphoteric surfactants),
and their fundamental surfactant properties and antimicrobial activity have been evaluated. The properties of these compounds
have been compared to the properties of the cationic monomer derivative methyl ester of Nα-lauroyl arginine and of the amphoteric
monomer derivative Nα-lauroyl arginine reported earlier.
The compounds are soluble in water and show surface activity, although in the case of the amphoteric Nα-lauroyl arginyl dipeptide
containing glutamic acid these two properties depend on the solution pH. The cationic Nα-lauroyl arginyl dipeptides are antimicrobial
agents. However, only the amphoteric compound containing lysine may be considered antimicrobial. 相似文献

In recent years it has become apparent that aminoacyl-tRNAs are not only crucial components involved in protein biosynthesis, but are also used as substrates and amino acid donors in a variety of other important cellular processes, ranging from bacterial cell wall biosynthesis and lipid modification to protein turnover and secondary metabolite assembly. In this review, we focus on tRNA-dependent biosynthetic pathways that generate modified cyclic dipeptides (CDPs). The essential peptide bond-forming catalysts responsible for the initial generation of a CDP-scaffold are referred to as cyclodipeptide synthases (CDPSs) and use loaded tRNAs as their substrates. After initially discussing the phylogenetic distribution and organization of CDPS gene clusters, we will focus on structural and catalytic properties of CDPSs before turning to two recently characterized CDPS-dependent pathways that assemble modified CDPs. Finally, possible applications of CDPSs in the rational design of structural diversity using combinatorial biosynthesis will be discussed before concluding with a short outlook. 相似文献
