Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 122, Issue 1, May 2026.In this study, a rational in silico strategy was employed to design a bioinsecticidal peptide targeting the digestive trypsins of Spodoptera frugiperda, utilizing the Dioscorin–trypsin interface as a structural template. By identifying critical interface hot‐spot residues, an 11‐residue oligopeptide designated as PEP‐11 was engineered, demonstrating ...
