Heuristic energy-based cyclic peptide design. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology
Rational computational design is crucial to the pursuit of novel drugs and therapeutic agents. Meso-scale cyclic peptides, which consist of 7-40 amino acid residues, are of particular interest due to their conformational rigidity, binding specificity ...

Identification of a novel and high-affinity cyclic peptide targeting Keap1 for inflammation treatment by a combined virtual screening strategy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry
Inhibition of the Keap1-Nrf2 protein-protein interaction with cyclic peptides represents an attractive strategy to treat inflammation. However, the cyclic peptides for this inhibition are constrained by their low affinity. In this study, the peptides 1-6

A cyclic peptide-based PROTAC induces intracellular degradation of palmitoyltransferase and potently decreases PD-L1 expression in human cervical cancer cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
IntroductionOur previous research has found that degradation of palmitoyltransferase in tumor cells using a linear peptide PROTAC leads to a significant decrease in PD-L1 expression in tumors.

Efficient 3D conformer generation of cyclic peptides formed by a disulfide bond

open access: yesJournal of Cheminformatics, 2022
Cyclic peptides formed by disulfide bonds have been one large group of common drug candidates in drug development. Structural information of a peptide is essential to understand its interaction with its target.

Cyclic Opioid Peptides [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Medicinal Chemistry, 2016
For decades the opioid receptors have been an attractive therapeutic target for the treatment of pain. Since the first discovery of enkephalin, approximately a dozen endogenous opioid peptides have been known to produce opioid activity and analgesia, but their therapeutics have been limited mainly due to low blood brain barrier penetration and poor ...

Rapid in silico Design of Potential Cyclic Peptide Binders Targeting Protein-Protein Interfaces

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2020
Rational design of specific inhibitors of protein-protein interactions is desirable for drug design to control cellular signal transduction but also for studying protein-protein interaction networks.
