the importance of the cis conformation of peptide bonds in protein structures, especially if it is a Xaa–nonPro peptide bond, and second, the possibility that many cis peptide bonds may have ...

A natural antibacterial molecule shows clinical promise. Its unusual binding site is on an excellent target: ...

The Protein and Peptide Science Group (PPSG) is one of the RSC's many Interest Groups. The Interest Groups are member driven groups which exist to benefit RSC members, and the wider chemical science ...

Researchers discovered lariocidin, a lasso peptide antibiotic that kills multidrug-resistant bacteria by binding a novel ...

Collagen, a protein found in bones and connective tissue ... That just flies in the face of what happens with a normal peptide bond, which has a half-life of only 500 years," says Ron Raines ...

After translation, the polypeptide is finally folded into the correct shape and becomes a protein. Peptide bonds form between the adjacent amino acids to finalise the structure.

Phil's examination of unusual peptide backbone chain topologies including protein catenanes, as well as his seminal study of H-bond strengths in beta-sheets rounds out a remarkable series of ...
