Elucidating the role of water in collagen self assembly by isotopically modulating collagen hydration

G. Giubertoni, L. Feng, K. Klein, G. Giannetti, Y. Choi, A. van der Net, G. Castro-Linares, F. Caporaletti, D. Micha, J. Hunger, A. Deblais, D. Bonn, A. Saric, I. M. Ilie, G. H. Koenderink, S. Woutersen

This study investigates how water isotopes affect collagen self-assembly by comparing D2O and H2O, finding faster assembly and thinner fibrils in D2O due to reduced hydration.

Labile assembly of a tardigrade protein induces biostasis

S. Sanchez-Martinez, K. Nguyen, S. Biswas, V. Nicholson, A. V. Romanyuk, J. F. Ramirez, S. KC, A. Akter, C. Childs, E. T. Usher, G. M. Ginell, F. Yu, E. Gollub, M. Malferrari, F. Francia, , T. C. Boothby

This study identifies a mechanism by which tardigrade CAHS D proteins form gels to protect cells during desiccation, showing that gelation reduces molecular motion and metabolic activity, with reversible effects.

In situ identification of secondary structures in unpurified Bombyx mori silk fibrils using polarized two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy

G. Giubertoni, F. Caporaletti, S. J. Roeters, A. S. Chatterley, T. Weidner, P. Laity, C. Holland, S. Woutersen

This study uses polarized 2D infrared spectroscopy to identify secondary structures in Bombyx mori silk fibrils without peak fitting, showing hydration affects random-coil and -helix content but not beta-sheet content.
