Stable Macroscopic Membranes Formed By Self-Assembly Of Amphiphilic Peptides And Uses Therefor

View page
US Patent:
6548630, Apr 15, 2003
Filed:
Jul 22, 1997
Appl. No.:
08/898300
Inventors:
Shuguang Zhang - Cambridge MA
Curtis Lockshin - Lexington MA
Alexander Rich - Cambridge MA
Todd Holmes - Cambridge MA
Assignee:
Massachusettes Insitute of Technology - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
C07K 700
US Classification:
530300, 530324, 530325, 530326, 530327, 530350, 514 12, 514 13, 514 14
Abstract:
Described herein is the self-assembly of amphiphilic peptides, i. e. , peptides with alternating hydrophobic and hydrophilic residues, into macroscopic membranes. The membrane-forming peptides are greater than 12 amino acids in length, and preferably at least 16 amino acids, are complementary and are structurally compatible. Specifically, two peptides, (AEAEAKAK) (ARARADAD) , were shown to self-assemble into macroscopic membranes. Conditions under which the peptides self-assemble into macroscopic membranes and methods for producing the membranes are also described. The macroscopic membranes have several interesting properties: they are stable in aqueous solution, serum, and ethanol, are highly resistant to heat, alkaline and acidic pH, chemical denaturants, and proteolytic digestion, and are non-cytotoxic. The membranes are potentially useful in biomaterial applications such as slow-diffusion drug delivery systems, artificial skin, and separation matrices, and as experimental models for Alzheimers disease and scrapie infection. The sequence of the peptide, EAK16, was derived from a putative Z-DNA binding protein from yeast, called zuotin.

Microstructured Optical Device For Remote Chemical Sensing

View page
US Patent:
7262856, Aug 28, 2007
Filed:
May 25, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/137701
Inventors:
Douglas S. Hobbs - Lexington MA, US
Curtis A. Lockshin - Lexington MA, US
James J. Cowan - Lexington MA, US
Robert B. Nilsen - Mystic CT, US
International Classification:
G01N 21/00
C12M 1/34
US Classification:
356436, 356440, 422 8205, 422 8209, 4352872, 4352887
Abstract:
A microstructure-based chemical sensor that can be interrogated by a remote observer. The device acts as an electromagnetic wave filter in the optical region of the spectrum, filtering one or more wavelength bands where the band spectral notch location shifts in response to the accumulation of material on the surface of the microstructure sensor. The apparatus has a substrate having a surface relief structure containing dielectric bodies with one or more physical dimensions smaller than the wavelength of the filtered electromagnetic waves, such structures repeated in an array covering at least a portion of the surface of the substrate. A retro-reflecting structure allows interrogation of the sensor over a wide field of view. The device is particularly useful as a water monitoring device in hard to reach locations, and as a chemical warfare or explosives detector that can be read from a safe distance.
