Cyclophilins (Enzyme Commission (EC) number 5.1.2.8) belong to a group of proteins that have peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase activity; such proteins are collectively known as immunophilins and also include the FK-506-binding proteins and the parvulins. Cyclophilins are found in all cells of all organisms studied, in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes;

Analyses of the toxic properties of recombinant human Cyclophilin A in mice
Cyclophilin A (CypA), an 18 kDa multi-functional protein with cis–trans isomerase activity, is both a ligand for cyclosporine A and a proinflammatory factor. CypA is also a chemoattractant for hemopoietic stem cells and progenitors of different lineages,

Backbone Steric Constraints Underlie High Passive Membrane Permeability of N‐Alkyl Peptides
Beyond amide hydrogen removal, steric constraints encoded in N/Cα‐dually substituted backbones are uncovered as a key determinant of passive membrane permeability in N‐alkyl peptides. These constraints restrict conformational freedom and sterically limit backbone hydration during membrane permeation.

Cyclophilin B serum levels present variations across the menstrual cycle
Cyclophilins are a family of chaperones involved in inflammation and cell death. Cyclophilin B is released by inflammatory cells and acts through the receptor CD147, affecting matrix metalloproteases release, whilst cyclophilin D participates in hypoxia ...
