Peptides that self-assemble into nanostructures are of tremendous interest for biological, medical, photonic and nanotechnological applications. The enormous sequence space that is available from 20 ...

Scientists have developed a way of finding optimal peptide sequences: using a machine-learning algorithm as a collaborator. The algorithm analyzes experimental data and offers suggestions on the next ...

A new mass spectrometry strategy makes it easier to sequence venom peptides, a diverse set of disulfide-rich natural products that are difficult to characterize. For example, the approximately 500 ...

Discover the emerging field of AI-based peptide discovery and design – could this signal the beginning of a golden age for ...

In the hunt for new therapeutics for cancer and infectious diseases, lasso peptides prove to be a catch. Their knot-like ...

mRNA display is similar to ribosomal display except the linkage between the mRNA and the protein is a highly stable covalent amide bond instead of noncovalent coupling through an unstable ternary ...
