Discovery of Bioactive Peptides Through Peptide Scanning
ABSTRACTTherapeutic peptides targeted at various diseases are becoming increasingly relevant for the pharmaceutical industry. Several of these drugs were originally designed by mimicking a segment of a protein of interest. As such, protein mimicry represents a promising strategy both in immunology, for the identification of B‐ and T‐cell epitopes, as ...
