2 Lecture 7 Protein-based nanomaterials

3 1. Peptide-based nanostructures

4 A first insight into SA peptides Concept of peptide SA introduced by Ghadiri et al. (1993) Concept of peptide SA introduced by Ghadiri et al. (1993) Synthetic cyclic polypeptides (alternate L- & D-) self-assemble into Ø8-9nm nanotubes Synthetic cyclic polypeptides (alternate L- & D-) self-assemble into Ø8-9nm nanotubes Function as novel antimicrobial agents, drug delivery systems & nanomaterials Function as novel antimicrobial agents, drug delivery systems & nanomaterials

5 Ghadiri’s cyclic polypeptides (CPP)

6 Electronic microscopy

7 pH-dependance of CP SA

8 CPP forming pores in membranes

9  cyclic-peptides self-assembled into open tubes  consist of an even number of alternated D / L amino acids  formation of anti-parallel hydrogen bonded network  assembly could be controlled by electrostatic interactions  assembly could be directed toward particular environments (hydrophobic) by selection of amino acids  are functional material (ion channel & antibiotic) Self-Assembling Peptide Nanotubes

27 S-layer proteins

28 What are S-Layer proteins? S stands for surface: glycoprotein subunits forming outer envelope of Bacteria and Archea S stands for surface: glycoprotein subunits forming outer envelope of Bacteria and Archea Periodic structures with defined physico-chemical properties (pore size) Periodic structures with defined physico-chemical properties (pore size) Self_assemble into 2D layers to form monomolecular lattices: potential in nanobiotechnologies (scaffolds, patterning matrices) Self_assemble into 2D layers to form monomolecular lattices: potential in nanobiotechnologies (scaffolds, patterning matrices)

29 Applications of S-layers 1. 1. production of isoporous ultrafiltration membranes 2. 2. supporting structures for defined immobilization or incorporation of functional molecules (e.g. antigens, antibodies, ligands, enzymes) 3. 3. matrix for the development of biosensors including solid-phase immunoassays and label-free detection systems 4. 4. Support and stabilizing matrices for functional lipid membranes, liposomes, and emulsomes 5. 5. adjuvants for weakly immunogenic antigens and haptens 6. 6. Matrix for controlled biomineralization and structure for formation of ordered arrays of metal clusters or nanoparticles (molecular electronics and nonlinear optics or catalysts)
