Total synthesis and structural characterization of a novel protein scaffold from the snail Biomphalaria glabrata. [PDF]

Protein Sci
Abstract Disulfide‐rich miniproteins constitute compact and highly stable scaffolds of growing interest for molecular and structural engineering. Schistosomins are ~80‐residue proteins conserved across gastropods that form a long‐standing orphan family whose structure and biological roles have remained unknown.
