Toxicon : official journal of the International Society on Toxinology, 130, 1-10 (2017-02-28)
Animal toxins are peptides that often bind with remarkable affinity and selectivity to membrane receptors such as nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). The latter are, for example, targeted by α-conotoxins, a family of peptide toxins produced by venomous cone snails. nAChRs

Herein, we describe a modified form of the antimicrobial hairpin-like peptide EcAMP1, isolated from barnyard grass (E. crusgalli) seeds, which is structurally characterized by a combination of high-pressure liquid chromatography, mass spectrometry, and automated Edman sequencing. This derivate has a
Degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is one of the fundamental factors contributing to a variety of life-threatening or disabling pathological conditions. However, a thorough understanding of the degradation mechanism and development of new ECM-targeting diagnostics are severely hindered by
To address the downside of conventional photo-patterning which can alter the chemical composition of protein scaffolds, we developed a non-covalent photo-patterning strategy for gelatin (denatured collagen) hydrogels that utilizes UV activated triple helical hybridization of caged collagen mimetic peptide (caged
Proline analogues are promising candidates for tuning the biological, pharmaceutical, or physicochemical properties of naturally occuring, as well as de novo designed, linear, and, cyclic peptides.
