Jin Kim Montclare Director of the Convergence for Innovation and Entrepreneurship (CIE) Institute Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering & Biomedical Engineering, NYU Tandon School of Engineering Chemistry, NYU College of Arts & Sciences Wednesday, May 17, 2023, 13:30 EDT Responsive Protein Engineered Biomaterials https://bnl.zoomgov.com/meeting/register/vJIsc-qtqDstGpkgng2VJupNtdgPwDtp1ys Abstract Inspired by nature’s biopolymers, we engineer artificial protein materials with entirely new properties and function. We employ synthetic and chemical biology to construct our materials and endow them with stimuli-responsiveness. In particular, we have fabricated protein-derived nanomaterials: coiled-coil fibers, helix-elastin block polymers, and supercharged coiled-coil•lipid complexes (or lipoproteoplexes). We investigate the fundamental self-assembly and molecular recognition capabilities of these systems. More importantly, we are able to harness these structure as well as others to interface with small molecule therapeutics, genes, and cells. =============================================================================== Vivian Stojanoff, PhD Education, Training, Outreach User Program p 1(631) 344 8375 e nsls.lifescien...@gmail.com w https://www.bnl.gov/ps/lifesciences/<https://www.bnl.gov/ps/lsbr/> Address: Center for Biomolecular Structure National Synchrotron Light Source II Building 745 Brookhaven National Laboratory Upton NY 11973 Supporting Grants: CBMS is supported by NIH-NIGMS #P30GM133893, and by the DOE-BER #KP1605010.
