Proline isomerization modulates the bacterial IsdB/hemoglobin interaction: an atomic force spectroscopy study by Francesca Pancrazi, Omar De Bei, Francesco Lavecchia di Tocco, Marialaura Marchetti, Barbara Campanini, Salvatore Cannistraro, Stefano Bettati, Anna Rita Bizzarri

“…Here, we show that the single point mutation of Pro173 in the IsdB domain responsible for Hb binding, which weakens the IsdB:Hb interaction without hampering heme extraction, totally abolishes the previously observed behavior. Remarkably, Pro173 does not directly interact with Hb, but undergoes cis–trans isomerization upon IsdB:Hb complex formation, coupled to folding-upon binding of the corresponding protein loop. …”

3D Electrospun Nanofiber-Based Scaffolds: From Preparations and Properties to Tissue Regeneration Applications by Shanshan Han, Kexin Nie, Jingchao Li, Qingqing Sun, Xiaofeng Wang, Xiaomeng Li, Qian Li

“…Electrospun nanofibers have been frequently used for tissue engineering due to their morphological similarities with the extracellular matrix (ECM) and tunable chemical and physical properties for regulating cell behaviors and functions. However, most of the existing electrospun nanofibers have a closely packed two-dimensional (2D) membrane with the intrinsic shortcomings of limited cellular infiltration, restricted nutrition diffusion, and unsatisfied thickness. …”
