- summary: there are numerous advantages for using SILAC-based methods compared to chemical labeling, a major drawback of SILAC is that it cannot be applied to tissue protein analysis directly. Membrane proteins constitute 30% of the typical proteome, yet their propensity to aggregate and precipitate in solution confounds their analysis [28] .

- summary: In conclusion, the analysis of hydropathic environments strongly suggests that the orientation of a residue in a three-dimensional structure is a direct consequence of its hydropathic environment, which leads us to propose a new paradigm, interaction homology, as a key factor in protein structure. In computer simulation modeling of protein structure in a solvent medium, explicit, implicit, effectivemedium, approaches are often adopted to incorporate the effects of solvation.

- summary: The antibody derived peptide PeB and its mutant variant PeB GF are promising hemagglutinin binding peptides, which both could have potential for application in viral diagnostics and therapeutics. A more epitope-oriented accession to binding peptides is the search for paratope-derived peptides from variable regions of specific antibodies [24] .

- summary: [70, 71] As for enveloped virus fusion peptides, the amphipathic a-helix seems to be a key structural motif also for non-enveloped viruses. [3] On the other hand, the entry of non-enveloped viruses, which lacking the outer viral membrane are unable to take advantage of the cellular mechanism of membrane fusion, involves the activation of viral lytic factors that induce cell membrane rupture.

- summary: Peptide structures can be approached by spectroscopy and NMR techniques but data from these approaches too frequently diverge. To increase the stability and the therapeutic efficacy of peptide sequences from myelin oligodendrocyte protein (MOG) that act as multiple sclerosis (MS) antigens, we grafted them onto a framework of a particularly stable class of peptides, the cyclotides.

The grey square for sNPF in M. expansa, for which only transcriptome sequence data are available, indicates that sNPFtype peptides and sNPF-type receptor(s) are likely to be present in this species because sNPF-type peptides and sNPF-type receptors have been identified in another platyhelminth species, S. mediterranea, for which a genome sequence is available.

- summary: Inhibitory activity of gH peptides. In fact, the two proteins need each other to fold correctly and gL is a powerful scaffolding protein for gH. The inability of gH peptides derived from the H1 domain to function as inhibitors of infectivity can be explained by the fact that the formation of the highly stable complex between the two glycoproteins happens during the maturation and egress from the infected cell; therefore, the structure is already definitive when the heterodimer becomes expressed on the mature virion envelope.

- summary: Figure 6 shows the image acquired by a scanner/reader of SA23 fluorescent aptamer spotted on a glass slide coated with ns-ZrO 2 for various concentrations, namely 1, 2, 4 and 8 µM. The isotherms showing the adhesion of SA23 aptamer on different substrates are reported in Figure 7 . Circular dichroism experiments were carried out on λ-Cro peptide mutants optimized to interact with the double strand portion of SA23 aptamer in 20 mM phosphate buffer, pH 7.4.

- summary: In this study, a library of nine stapled peptides was prepared by modifying peptide K via cysteine alkylation. The effectiveness of E/ K-based membrane fusion is partially attributed to the membrane interactions of peptide K, which are theorized to induce membrane curvature and therefore accelerate the transition from membrane docking to hemifusion.

- summary: However, peptide cleavage assays previously showed that incorporation of Glu at this position only reduces the cleavage rate by a factor of 2, 8 consistent with the common occurrence of P1-Glu in FMDV 3C pro substrates. However, there is little sequence conservation at this position in FMDV 3C pro substrates, and the most common alternative P3′ residues (Tyr, Ala and Ile) would not maintain this interaction.

- summary: Since the intestinal epithelium stem cells reside in the intestinal crypts, secretion of Paneth cell defensins into the crypt lumen (Figure 6. 3) could provide a protective barrier for this vital proliferative compartment. However, unlike the myeloid defensins, Paneth cell defensins are stored as propeptides, exclusively so in humans (Porter et al. 1998; Ouellette et al. 2000; Ghosh et al. 2002) .

- summary: [11] Since then, fibrillar peptide amphiphile materials have been explored in a broad range of medical applications ranging between wound healing, [97] bone healing, [98] the delivery of proteins, [99] nervous tissue repair, [100] and others. The immunogenic features of peptide assemblies are advantageous for the development of synthetic vaccines and other engineered immunotherapies, a topic which has been recently reviewed by our group and others, [1, 2, 5, 82, 83] but it is also important to note for other assemblies containing high densities of protein or peptide ligands/epitopes that such multivalent displays may induce unwanted immune responses.

Usually, metabolically labeled protein lysates (e.g., 35 S-methionine-labeled) are used for immunoprecipitation studies and samples are run on SDS-PAGE gels that can then be used for autoradiography.

- summary: By using a short LC gradient focusing on the region of interest identified in our previous study, we tested the detection of the virus in samples containing different quantities of viral peptides, as well as COVID-19 clinical samples, paving the way for the development of time-efficient viral diagnostic tests based on an alternative platform. This was repeated several times to obtain a one third dilution cascade of viral peptides.
