RT Journal Article T1 Stereoselective self-assembly of DNA binding helicates directed by the Viral β-Annulus Trimeric Peptide Motif A1 Gómez González, Jacobo A1 Bouzada Reboredo, David A1 Pérez Márquez, Lidia Ana A1 Sciortino, Giuseppe A1 Maréchal, Jean-Didier A1 Vázquez López, Miguel A1 Vázquez Sentis, Marco Eugenio K1 Genetics K1 Ligands K1 Monomers K1 Peptides and proteins K1 Supramolecular structures and assemblies AB Combining coordination chemistry and peptide engineering offers extraordinary opportunities for developing novel molecular (supra)structures. Here, we demonstrate that the β-annulus motif is capable of directing the stereoselective assembly of designed peptides containing 2,2′-bipyridine ligands into parallel three-stranded chiral peptide helicates, and that these helicates selectively bind with high affinity to three-way DNA junctions PB ACS Publications SN 1043-1802 YR 2021 FD 2021 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10347/29039 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10347/29039 LA eng NO Bioconjugate Chem. 2021, 32, 1564−1569. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.bioconjchem.1c00312 NO Financial support from the Spanish grant RTI2018-099877-B-I00, the Xunta de Galicia (Centro singular de Investigación de Galicia accreditation 2016–2019, ED431G/09, and ED431B 2018/04), and the European Union (European Regional Development Fund - ERDF) is gratefully acknowledged.
