Cyclophilins play a key role in the life cycle of many viruses and represent important drug targets for broad-spectrum antiviral therapies. Here, the authors use fragment-based drug discovery to develop non-peptidic inhibitors of human cyclophilins with ...

The well-known immunosuppressive drug cyclosporin A inhibits replication of various viruses including coronaviruses by binding to cellular cyclophilins thus inactivating their cis-trans peptidyl-prolyl isomerase function.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis Peptidyl-Prolyl Isomerases Also Exhibit Chaperone like Activity In-Vitro and In-Vivo. [PDF]
Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerases (Ppiases), also known as cyclophilins, are ubiquitously expressed enzymes that assist in protein folding by isomerization of peptide bonds preceding prolyl residues.

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.

Peptidyl-prolyl cis–trans isomerases (PPIases) are the only class of enzymes capable of cis–trans isomerization of the prolyl peptide bond. The PPIases, comprising of different families viz., cyclophilins, FK506-binding proteins (FKBPs), parvulins and ...

BACKGROUND - Cyclophilins are ubiquitous panallergens whose epidemiological, diagnostic, and clinical relevance is largely unknown and whose sensitization is rarely examined in routine allergy practice.
