Abstract
En 中文
Coiled-coil protein origami (CCPO) polyhedra are designed self-assembling nanostructures constructed from coiled coil (CC)-forming modules connected into a single chain. For testing new CCPO building modules, simpler polyhedra could be used that should maintain most features relevant to larger scaffolds. We show the design and characterization of nanoscale single-chain triangles, composed of six concatenated parallel CC dimer-forming segments connected by flexible linker peptides. The polypeptides self-assembled in bacteria in agreement with the design, and the shape of the polypeptides was confirmed with small-angle X-ray scattering. Fusion with split-fluorescent protein domains was used as a functional assay in bacteria, based on the discrimination between the correctly folded and misfolded nanoscale triangles comprising correct, mismatched, or truncated modules. This strategy was used to evaluate the optimal size of linkers between CC segments which comprised eight amino acid residues.
