Prof. Liu Cong from the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, along with collaborators, ...

A peptide sequence that performs well at micromole scale may behave unpredictably at gram or kilogram scale. Coupling efficiency, acceptable with high reagent excess, can drop when equivalents are ...

In recent years, interest has grown around two investigational peptides, BPC-157 and TB-500, proposed as part of a combined research-oriented protocol to explore tissue regeneration, angiogenesis, and ...

Protein barcodes are short, information- rich stretches of amino acids encoded by DNA sequences that can be added to the DNA sequences coding for proteins. Then, when protein barcode DNA and protein ...

Antimicrobial resistance is a major public health issue that contributes to the emergence of drug-resistant microorganisms, thereby increasing the risk of nosocomial infections. Short peptide ...

Whether you’re interested in why a living system works as it does or the reasons it goes awry, proteins are a critical part of the molecular picture. The proteins circulating in a person’s plasma can ...

A new large language model predicts the properties of lasso peptides, natural products of bacteria that have therapeutic potential. In the hunt for new therapeutics for cancer and infectious diseases, ...

Pranam Chatterjee, PhD, assistant professor of bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn), emphasizes that text is all you need for artificial intelligence (AI) models to effectively ...

Since 1921, when the first therapeutic peptide, insulin, was synthesized, many peptide-related accomplishments have reverberated throughout the industry, with more than 80 peptide drugs being approved ...
