1.
Structure-activity analysis of the dermcidin-derived peptide DCD-1L, an anionic antimicrobial peptide present in human sweat
Paulmann M, Arnold T, Linke D, Ozdirekcan S, Kopp A, Gutsmann T, et al.
J Biol Chem . 2012 Jan; 287(11):8434-43. PMID: 22262861
Dermcidin encodes the anionic amphiphilic peptide DCD-1L, which displays a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity under conditions resembling those in human sweat. Here, we have investigated its mode of antimicrobial...

On the orientation of a designed transmembrane peptide: toward the right tilt angle?
Ozdirekcan S, Etchebest C, Killian J, Fuchs P
J Am Chem Soc . 2007 Nov; 129(49):15174-81. PMID: 18001020
The orientation of the transmembrane peptide WALP23 under small hydrophobic mismatch has been assessed through long-time-scale molecular dynamics simulations of hundreds of nanoseconds. Each simulation gives systematically large tilt angles...

Influence of trifluoroethanol on membrane interfacial anchoring interactions of transmembrane alpha-helical peptides
Ozdirekcan S, Nyholm T, Raja M, Rijkers D, Liskamp R, Killian J
Biophys J . 2007 Oct; 94(4):1315-25. PMID: 17905843
Interfacial anchoring interactions between aromatic amino acid residues and the lipid-water interface are believed to be important determinants for membrane protein structure and function. Thus, it is possible that molecules...

Energy metabolism of bloodstream form Trypanosoma theileri
van Hellemond J, Hoek A, Wichgers Schreur P, Chupin V, Ozdirekcan S, Geysen D, et al.
Eukaryot Cell . 2007 Jul; 6(9):1693-6. PMID: 17644652
Bloodstream form Trypanosoma theileri degrades glucose to acetate (47%) and succinate (45%) and, therefore, does not solely rely on glycolysis for ATP production. This trypanosomatid does not use amino acids...

How protein transmembrane segments sense the lipid environment
Nyholm T, Ozdirekcan S, Killian J
Biochemistry . 2007 Feb; 46(6):1457-65. PMID: 17279611
Integral membrane proteins have central roles in a vast number of vital cellular processes. A structural feature that most membrane proteins have in common is the presence of one or...
6.
Influence of flanking residues on tilt and rotation angles of transmembrane peptides in lipid bilayers. A solid-state 2H NMR study
Ozdirekcan S, Rijkers D, Liskamp R, Killian J
Biochemistry . 2005 Jan; 44(3):1004-12. PMID: 15654757
To gain insight into the parameters that determine the arrangement of proteins in membranes, (2)H NMR experiments were performed to analyze tilt and rotation angles of membrane-spanning alpha-helical model peptides...

Tilt angles of transmembrane model peptides in oriented and non-oriented lipid bilayers as determined by 2H solid-state NMR
Strandberg E, Ozdirekcan S, Rijkers D, van der Wel P, Koeppe 2nd R, Liskamp R, et al.
Biophys J . 2004 Jun; 86(6):3709-21. PMID: 15189867
Solid-state NMR methods employing (2)H NMR and geometric analysis of labeled alanines (GALA) were used to study the structure and orientation of the transmembrane alpha-helical peptide acetyl-GWW(LA)(8)LWWA-amide (WALP23) in phosphatidylcholine...
