Amino acids are the building blocks that form polypeptides and ultimately proteins. Consequently, they are fundamental components of our bodies and vital for physiological functions such as protein ...

and become active by cleavage of a specific peptide bond by an activator (5). A balance between protease activators and inhibitors is essential to retain adequate peptide and amino acid profiles for ...

Then, we discuss the recent progress and development trends of self-assembled peptide-based vaccines, their challenges, and clinical translatability, as well as their future perspectives. In this mini ...

Not all fixed income securities have tax benefits, but some do. Municipal bonds, for example, are exempt from federal income tax and qualified investors may also be exempt from state and local tax.

These macrocyclization reactions use the substrates amino terminus instead of water to deacylate, so a peptide bond is formed. How solvent-exposed plant AEPs macrocyclize is poorly understood. Here we ...
