Abstract
In this paper, the chemical conjugation of marine natural products with other bioactive molecules for developing an advanced anti-cancer agent is described. Structural complexity and the extraordinary biological features of marine natural products have led to tremendous research in isolation, structural elucidation, synthesis, and pharmacological evaluation. In addition, this basic scientific achievement has made it possible to hybridize two or more biologically important skeletons into a single compound. The hybridization strategy has been used to identify further opportunities to overcome certain limitations, such as structural complexity, scarcity problems, poor solubility, severe toxicity, and weak potency of marine natural products for advanced development in drug discovery. Further, well-designed marine chimera molecules can function as a platform for target discovery or degradation. In this review, the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of recent marine chimera molecules are presented.

Abstract
A novel electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor using gold nanoparticles as signal transduction probes was described for the detection of kinase activity. The gold nanoparticles were specifically conjugated to the thiophosphate group after the phosphorylation process in the presence of adenosine 59-[c-thio] triphosphate (ATP-s) cosubstrate. Due to its good conductivity, large surface area, and excellent electroactivity to luminol oxidization, the gold nanoparticles extremely amplified the ECL signal of luminol, offering a highly sensitive ECL biosensor for kinase activity detection. Protein kinase A (PKA), an important enzyme in regulation of glycogen, sugar, and lipid metabolism in the human body, was used as a model to confirm the proof-of-concept strategy. The as-proposed biosensor presented high sensitivity, low detection limit of 0.07 U mL(-1), wide linear range (from 0.07 to 32 U mL(-1)), and excellent stability. Moreover, this biosensor can also be used for quantitative analysis of kinase inhibition. On the basis of the inhibitor concentration dependent ECL signal, the half-maximal inhibition value IC(50) of ellagic acid, a PKA inhibitor, was estimated, which was in agreement with those characterized with the conventional kinase assay. While nearly no ECL signal change can be observed in the presence of Tyrphostin AG1478, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, but not PKA inhibitor, shows its excellent performance in kinase inhibitor screening. The simple and sensitive biosensor is promising in developing a high-through assay of in vitro kinase activity and inhibitor screening for clinic diagnostic and drug development.

Abstract
Current optical imaging probe applications are hampered by poor sensitivity and specificity to the target, but molecular-level fluorescent signal activation strategies can efficiently overcome these limitations. Recent interdisciplinary research that couples the imaging sciences to fluorophore, peptide, polymer, and inorganic-based chemistry has generated novel imaging probes that exhibit high sensitivity and low background noise in both in vitro and in vivo applications. This feature article introduces and discusses the various approaches described by the term "fluorescent signal activation methods" with respect to their unique imaging probe design strategies and applications.

Abstract
The study of protein-protein and protein-DNA interactions is critical to understand biological processes. This article presents the methodology to create peptide microarrays in situ for the high-throughput screening of complex biomolecules. The in situ ink-jet peptide synthesis results in a conservation of costly reagent and amino acids, whereas providing a means to produce denser peptide arrays. A smaller amount of test sample is required to observe interaction when using these high-density peptide arrays.

Abstract
The most common methods for discovery of chemical compounds capable of manipulating biological function involves some form of screening. The success of such screens is highly dependent on the chemical materials - commonly referred to as libraries - that are assayed. Classic methods for the design of screening libraries have depended on knowledge of target structure and relevant pharmacophores for target focus, and on simple count-based measures to assess other properties. The recent proliferation of two novel screening paradigms, structure-based screening and high-content screening, prompts a profound rethink about the ideal composition of small-molecule screening libraries. We suggest that currently utilized libraries are not optimal for addressing new targets by high-throughput screening, or complex phenotypes by high-content screening.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine kinases are key biochemical effectors of the signaling pathways that drive both normal and aberrant cell behavior. The ability to visualize the activity of tyrosine kinases in both a continuous and sensitive fashion will have a dramatic impact on the identification and characterization of inhibitors, the elucidation of the biochemical role of protein tyrosine kinases in various biological processes, and the imaging of kinase action in cells, tissues, and whole organisms. Several chemical strategies have recently been described that translate the formation of a phosphorylated tyrosine residue into a fluorescent readout. The challenges associated with the design of protein tyrosine kinase sensors, as well as the scope and limitations of the currently available sensors, are described.

Abstract
Protein-based fluorescent biosensors with sufficient sensing specificity are useful analytical tools for detection of biologically important substances in complicated biological systems. Here, we present the design of a hybrid biosensor, specific for a bis-phosphorylated peptide, based on a natural phosphoprotein binding domain coupled with an artificial fluorescent chemosensor. The hybrid biosensor consists of a phosphoprotein binding domain, the WW domain, into which has been introduced a fluorescent stilbazole having Zn(II)-dipicolylamine (Dpa) as a phosphate binding motif. It showed strong binding affinity and high sensing selectivity toward a specific bis-phosphorylated peptide in the presence of various phosphate species such as the monophosphorylated peptide, ATP, and others. Detailed fluorescence titration experiments clearly indicate that the binding-induced fluorescence enhancement and the sensing selectivity were achieved by the cooperative action of both binding sites of the hybrid biosensor, i.e., the WW domain and the Zn(II)-Dpa chemosensor unit. Thus, it is clear that the tethered Zn(II)-Dpa-stilbazole unit operated not only as a fluorescence signal transducer, but also as a sub-binding site in the hybrid biosensor. Taking advantage of its selective sensing property, the hybrid biosensor was successfully applied to real-time and label-free fluorescence monitoring of a protein kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation.

Abstract
This paper describes the fluorescence of bimolecular coassemblies that form one-dimensional nanostructures. One molecule is a fluorescent peptide amphiphile containing its branched stilbene chromophore covalently linked to the hydrophilic end of the amphiphile, and the second molecule is a shorter, nonfluorescent peptide amphiphile of complementary charge. Using circular dichroism we observe that mixing both molecules results in coassemblies that exhibit a beta-sheet signature in the peptide region indicative of these types of nanostructures. The nature of the coassembly is dependent on the molar ratio of each component, and the changing CD spectra suggest the formation of domains along the length of the nanofibers with decreasing concentrations of the fluorescent component. In coassemblies with dilute concentrations of the fluorophore, we observe an increase in fluorescence intensity and quantum yield, as well as chiral transfer to the achiral segment of the fluorescent peptide amphiphile. The coassemblies studied containing a fluorescent component at a low molar ratio exhibit fluorescence resonance energy transfer to fluorescent acceptors in solution. When the nonfluorescent peptide amphiphile component is designed to bind the important bioactive polysaccharide heparin, a selective transfer of energy is observed between fluorescein-tagged heparin and the coassemblies in both dilute solution and in macroscopic gels.

Abstract
Stable-isotope labeling coupled with liquid-phase separation and MS analysis is a powerful technique for comparative proteomics. We developed a dimethyl labeling strategy (Anal. Chem. 2003, 75, 6843-6852 and J. Proteome Res. 2005, 4, 101-108) to label peptide N-terminus and epsilon-amino groups of Lys with water-soluble formaldehyde via reductive methylation, and an isotopic pair of formaldehyde is used for binary labeling on two sets of samples. In this study, this approach is extended to a four sample labeling by combining the binary isotopic reagents of formaldehyde (d0, d2) and the binary isotopic reducing reagents, sodium cyanoborohydride (d0, d3). To ensure sufficient mass difference, this multiplexed labeling is coupled with endoproteinase Lys-C instead of trypsin for digestion, resulting in at least two labeling sites with a mass difference of 4 Da for each pair of peptide digest. Moreover, multiplex dimethyl labeling was proved to have no significant isotopic effect during RP LC elution. This method was further applied for monitoring Lys-C digestion using hemoglobin as a model. Dimethyl labeled digests derived from seven time points (1-30 h) were grouped into two sets of sample mixtures, separated by nano-LC to reduce the complexity, and then analyzed by ESI-MS/MS. The temporal study reveals that Lys-C digestion was completed in 10-15 h for all detected peptides. The multiplex dimethyl method has not only provided a simultaneous detection mean for four sample sets but has also conserved all the advantages associated with the original binary method.

Abstract
Bistramide A (1) is a marine natural product with broad, potent antiproliferative effects. Bistramide A has been reported to selectively activate protein kinase C (PKC) delta, leading to the view that PKCdelta is the principal mediator of antiproliferative activity of this natural product. Contrary to this observation, we established that bistramide A binds PKCdelta with low affinity, does not activate this kinase in vitro and does not translocate GFP-PKCdelta. Furthermore, we identified actin as the cellular receptor of bistramide A. We report that bistramide A disrupts the actin cytoskeleton, inhibits actin polymerization, depolymerizes filamentous F-actin in vitro and binds directly to monomeric G-actin in a 1:1 ratio with a Kd of 7 nM. We also constructed a fully synthetic9 bistramide A-based affinity matrix and isolated actin as a specific bistramide A-binding protein. This activity provides a molecular explanation for the potent antiproliferative effects of bistramide A, identifying it as a new biochemical tool for studies of the actin cytoskeleton and as a potential lead for development of a new class of antitumor agents.
