De Novo Design of Ln(III) Coiled Coils for Imaging Applications

Abstract: A new peptide sequence (MB1) has been designed which, in the presence of a trivalent lanthanide ion, has been programmed to self-assemble to form a three stranded metallo-coiled coil, Ln(III)(MB1)3. The binding site has been incorporated into the hydrophobic core using natural amino acids, restricting water access to the lanthanide. The resulting terbium coiled coil displays luminescent properties consistent with a lack of first coordination sphere water molecules. Despite this the gadolinium coiled coil, the … Show more

“…The r 1 value of our peptide-Gd(III) complexes (Nap-GFFYGRGD-Gd(III) and Nap-GFFYGRGE-Gd(III) complexes) was about 10.4 and 13.7 times that of Magnevist. To the best of our knowledge, these values were the biggest ones for peptide-Gd(III) complexes34243484950. Such a huge enhancement was due to the binding of Gd(III) to the nanofibers and the formation of complexes between Gd(III) and the peptides.…”

“…Inspired by nature, researchers have developed many biofunctional nanomaterials formed by the specific interactions between metal ions and peptides34567. Among them, supramolecular hydrogels89101112, especially those of peptides13141516171819202122232425, have attracted research interests due to their inherent biocompatibility, degradability, and fast responsiveness to external stimuli26272829303132.…”

“…Performing the same pH CD titration for a buried Tb(III) binding site, as featured in MB1-2, should show a notable change in folding on de-complexation. 8,9 Though the CD pH titration shows a steady decrease in MB1-2 folding as a function of pH, see Fig. S5B, † it is not consistent with full Tb(III) de-complexation and complete conversion to the apo form, which is only 21 ± 3% folded at pH 7.…”

“…In particular, the unquenched orbital moment of Eu(III) with the 7 F 0 ground state can give rise to fascinating magnetic properties associated with its anisotropy. Therefore, Ln(III) complexes may be applicable to the in vivo contrast imaging and luminescent probes [19][20][21][22][23][24]. To date, the magnetic properties of the Ln(III) complexes with homoleptic DBM, and mixed DBM and phen have not been reported.…”
