  abstract  = {Im Mittelpunkt dieser Arbeit standen Signaltransduktionsprozesse in den Strukturen der Kraft{\"u}bertragung quergestreifter Muskelzellen, d. h. in den Costameren (Zell-Matrix-Kontakten) und den Glanzstreifen (Zell-Zell-Kontakten der Kardiomyozyten).Es ließ sich zeigen, dass sich die Morphologie der Zell-Matrix-Kontakte w{\"a}hrend der Differenzierung von Skelettmuskelzellen dramatisch {\"a}ndert, was mit einer ver{\"a}nderten Proteinzusammensetzung einhergeht. Immunfluoreszenz-Analysen von Skelettmuskelzellen verschiedener Differenzierungsstadien implizieren, dass die Signalwege, welche die Dynamik der Fokalkontakte in Nichtmuskelzellen bestimmen, nur f{\"u}r fr{\"u}he Stadien der Muskeldifferenzierung Relevanz haben k{\"o}nnen. Ausgehend von diesem Befund wurde begonnen, noch unbekannte Signalwege zu identifizieren, welche die Ausbildung von Costameren kontrollieren: In den Vorl{\"a}uferstrukturen der Costamere gelang es, eine transiente Interaktion der Proteine Paxillin und Ponsin zu identifizieren. Biochemische Untersuchungen legen nahe, dass Ponsin {\"u}ber eine Skelettmuskel-spezifische Insertion im Carboxyterminus das Adapterprotein Nck2 in diesen Komplex rekrutiert. Es wird vorgeschlagen, dass die drei Proteine einen tern{\"a}ren Signalkomplex bilden, der die Umbauvorg{\"a}nge der Zell-Matrix-Kontakte kontrolliert und dessen Aktivit{\"a}t von mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPK) reguliert wird.Die Anpassungsvorg{\"a}nge der Strukturen der Kraft{\"u}bertragung an pathologische Situtation (Kardiomyopathien) in der adulten quergestreiften Muskulatur wurden ausgehend von einem zweiten Protein, dem muscle LIM protein (MLP), untersucht. Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass ein mutiertes MLP-Protein, das im Menschen eine hypertrophe Kardiomyopathie (HCM) ausl{\"o}st, strukturelle Defekte aufweist und weniger stabil ist. Weiterhin zeigte dieses mutierte Protein eine verringerte Bindungsf{\"a}higkeit an die beiden Liganden N-RAP und alpha-Actinin. Die molekulare Grundlage der HCM-verursachenden Mutationen im MLP-Gen k{\"o}nnte folglich eine Ver{\"a}nderung der Hom{\"o}ostase im tern{\"a}ren Komplex MLP \– N-RAP \– alpha-Actinin sein. Die Expressionsdaten eines neu generierten monoklonalen MLP-Antik{\"o}rpers deuten darauf hin, dass die Funktionen des MLP nicht nur f{\"u}r die Integrit{\"a}t des Myokards, sondern auch f{\"u}r die der Skelettmuskulatur notwendig sind.},

  abstract  = {Mimicking the binding epitopes of protein-protein interactions by using small peptides is important for generating modular biomimetic systems. A strategy is described for the design of such bioactive peptides without accessible structural data for the targeted interaction, and the effect of incorporating such adhesion peptides in complex biomaterial systems is demonstrated. The highly repetitive structure of decorin was analyzed to identify peptides that are representative of the inner and outer surface, and it was shown that only peptides based on the inner surface of decorin bind to collagen. The peptide with the highest binding affinity for collagenI, LHERHLNNN, served to slow down the diffusion of a conjugated dye in a collagen gel, while its dimer could physically crosslink collagen, thereby enhancing the elastic modulus of the gel by one order of magnitude. These results show the potential of the identified peptides for the design of biomaterials for applications in regenerative medicine.},

  abstract  = {The matrix protein M1 of the Influenza A virus (IAV) is supposed to mediate viral assembly and budding at the plasma membrane (PM) of infected cells. In order for a new viral particle to form, the PM lipid bilayer has to bend into a vesicle toward the extracellular side. Studies in cellular models have proposed that different viral proteins might be responsible for inducing membrane curvature in this context (including M1), but a clear consensus has not been reached. In the present study, we use a combination of fluorescence microscopy, cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM), cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) and scanning fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (sFCS) to investigate M1-induced membrane deformation in biophysical models of the PM. Our results indicate that M1 is indeed able to cause membrane curvature in lipid bilayers containing negatively charged lipids, in the absence of other viral components. Furthermore, we prove that protein binding is not sufficient to induce membrane restructuring. Rather, it appears that stable M1-M1 interactions and multimer formation are required in order to alter the bilayer three-dimensional structure, through the formation of a protein scaffold. Finally, our results suggest that, in a physiological context,M1-induced membrane deformation might be modulated by the initial bilayer curvature and the lateral organization of membrane components (i.e. the presence of lipid domains).},

  abstract  = {We have developed a genetic circuit in Escherichia coli that can be used to select for protein-protein interactions of different strengths by changing antibiotic concentrations in the media. The genetic circuit links protein-protein interaction strength to beta-lactamase activity while simultaneously imposing tuneable positive and negative selection pressure for beta-lactamase activity. Cells only survive if they express interacting proteins with affinities that fall within set high- and low-pass thresholds; i.e. the circuit therefore acts as a bandpass filter for protein-protein interactions. We show that the circuit can be used to recover protein-protein interactions of desired affinity from a mixed population with a range of affinities. The circuit can also be used to select for inhibitors of protein-protein interactions of defined strength. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},
