Total Synthesis of Thielocin B1 as a Protein-Protein Interaction Inhibitor of…
This book focuses on thielocin B1 (TB1), which was found to be an inhibitor of protein–protein interactions (PPIs) of proteasome assembling chaperone (PAC) 3 homodimer, and elucidates the mechanism by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies. Interfaces of PPIs recently have been expected to be novel therapeutic targets, while it is difficult to apply conventional methodology based on lock an…

Self-Assembled Molecules – New Kind of Protein Ligands
The standard substrate complexation mechanism engages natural binding sites. In contrast, supramolecular structures may form complexes with proteins by penetrating in regions which are either naturally unstable or become temporarily accessible due to structural rearrangements related to the protein’s function. This may result in enhancement of irreversible processes (e.g. immune complexat…

Time-Symmetry Breaking in Turbulent Multi-Particle Dispersion
This thesis presents experimental and theoretical investigations of the connection between the time asymmetry in the short-time evolution of particle clusters and the intrinsic irreversibility of turbulent flows due to the energy cascade. The term turbulence describes a special state of a continuous medium in which many interacting degrees of freedom are excited. One of the interesting phen…
