  • Publication number: 20240174992
    Abstract: Provided herein are peptide and polypeptide sequences that structurally assemble to form active, modified dehalogenase structures capable of binding to a haloalkyl ligand. In particular, provided herein are split dehalogenase variants that assemble through structural complementation into active dehalogenase complexes, and systems and methods of use thereof.
    Type: Application
    Filed: May 4, 2023
    Publication date: May 30, 2024
    Inventors: Michael P. Killoran, Evan Glasgow, Lance P. Encell, Thomas Kirkland, Rahele Esmatpour
  • Publication number: 20240132859
    Abstract: Provided herein modified dehalogenases have extended surface loop regions that provide a location for internal fusion insertions and modulate binding interaction and activation of environmentally-sensitive chemistries.

  • Publication number: 20240060059
    Abstract: Provided herein are circularly-permuted (cp) dehalogenase variants that are capable of covalently binding to a haloalkyl ligand. In particular cp dehalogenase variants and peptides and polypeptides comprising split versions thereof that structurally assemble to form an active dehalogenase complexes are provided.
