Chemical modification of therapeutic peptides is an important approach to improving their physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties. The triphenylphosphonium (TPP) cation has proved to be a powerful modifier; however, its effects on peptide structure and activity remain uncharacterized. In this study
Cyclic lipodepsipeptides or CLiPs from Pseudomonas are secondary metabolites that mediate a wide range of biological functions for their producers, and display antimicrobial and anticancer activities. Direct interaction of CLiPs with the cellular membranes is presumed to be essential in

Microbial pathogens, such as Trypanosoma brucei, have an enormous impact on global health and economic systems. Protein kinase A of T. brucei is an attractive drug target as it is an essential enzyme which differs significantly from its human homolog.
Antimicrobial peptides are important components of the host innate defense mechanism against invading pathogens, especially for drug-resistant bacteria. In addition to bactericidal activity, the 25 residue peptide TP4 isolated from Nile tilapia also stimulates cell proliferation and regulates the innate
Despite extensive characterization of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) hydrophobic fusion peptide (FP), the structure-function relationships underlying its extraordinary degree of conservation remain poorly understood. Specifically, the fact that the tandem repeat of the FLGFLG tripeptide is absolutely
