    Abstract CIDEM-501 is a hybrid antimicrobial peptide rationally designed based on the structure of panusin and panulirin template peptides. The new peptide exhibits significant antibacterial activity against multidrug-resistant pathogens (MIC = 2-4 μM) while conserving no toxicity in human cell lines. We conducted molecular dynamics (MD) simulations using the CHARMM-36 force field to explore the CIDEM-501 adsorption mechanism with different membrane compositions. Several parameters that characterize these interactions were analyzed to elucidate individual residues' structural and thermodynamic contributions. The membrane models were constructed using CHARMM-GUI, mimicking the bacterial and eukaryotic phospholipid compositions. Molecular dynamics simulations were conducted over 500 ns, showing rapid and highly stable peptide adsorption to bacterial lipids components rather than the zwitterionic eucaryotic model membrane. A predominant peptide orientation was observed in all models dominated by an electric dipole. The peptide remained parallel to the membrane surface with the center loop oriented to the lipids. Our findings shed light on the antibacterial activity of CIDEM-501 on bacterial membranes and yield insights valuable for designing potent antimicrobial peptides targeting multi- and extreme drug-resistant bacteria.

    Abstract Rhamnolipids are biosurfactants with an enormous potential to replace or complement classic surfactants in industrial applications. They consist of one or two L-rhamnose residues linked to one or two 3-hydroxyfatty acids of various chain lengths, which can also contain unsaturated carbon-carbon bonds, yielding a wide variety of different structures each with its specific physicochemical properties. Since different applications of surfactants require specific tenside characteristics related to surface tension reduction, emulsification, and foaming etc., rhamnolipids represent a platform molecule which harbors an enormous potential to adopt tailor-made properties to meet a huge variety of demands of surfactants for food-, healthcare-, and biotechnological applications. We are here giving an overview on current technology to synthesize tailor-made rhamnolipids based on the biotechnological use of different enzymes responsible for rhamnolipid biosynthesis originating from different naturally rhamnolipid-producing microorganism. Furthermore, we present future strategies to determine the number of L-rhamnose and 3-hydroxyfatty acids as well as their specific chain lengths and unsaturations to produce customized rhamnolipids perfectly tuned for every application.

    Abstract Today production of (bulk) chemicals and fuels almost exclusively relies on petroleum-based sources, which are connected to greenhouse gas release, fueling climate change. This increases the urgence to develop alternative bio-based technologies and processes. Gaseous and liquid C1 compounds are available at low cost and often occur as waste streams. Acetogenic bacteria can directly use C1 compounds like CO, CO

    Abstract In a highly efficient and reproducible process, bovine serum albumin (BSA) nanogels are prepared from inverse nanoemulsions. The concept of independent nanoreactors of the individual droplets in the nanoemulsions allows high protein concentrations of up to 0.6% in the inverse total system. The BSA gel networks are generated by the 1-ethyl-3-[3-dimethylaminopropyl]carbodiimide hydrochloride coupling strategy widely used in protein chemistry. In a robust work-up protocol, the hydrophobic continuous phase of the inverse emulsion is stepwise replaced by water without compromising the colloidal stability and non-toxicity of the nanogel particles. Further, the simple process allows the loading of the nanogels with various cargos like a dye (Dy-495), a drug (ibuprofen), another protein [FMN-binding fluorescent protein (EcFbFP)], and oligonucleotides [plasmid DNA for enhanced GFP expression in mammalian cells (pEGFP c3) and a synthetic anti-

    Abstract SELEX (Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential enrichment) processes aim on the evolution of high-affinity aptamers as binding entities in diagnostics and biosensing. Aptamers can represent game-changers as constituents of diagnostic assays for the management of instantly occurring infectious diseases or other health threats. Without in-process quality control measures SELEX suffers from low overall success rates. We present a quantitative PCR method for fast and easy quantification of aptamers bound to their targets.
