A Novel Cell-Penetrating Lipopeptide for DNA Binding, Self-Assembly, and Delivery Into HeLa and Pluripotent Stem Cells. [PDF]
A lipopeptide is designed that contains an epitope from simian virus T‐antigen (SV40T, PKKKRKV) conjugated to an N‐terminal palmitoyl (C16‐) moiety, which acts as a cell‐penetrating lipopeptide, with additional aggregation propensity conferred by the lipid chain. The lipopeptide enables DNA delivery into the cytoplasm and nucleus.

Lipopeptides for Vaccine Development [PDF]
The development of lipopeptides (lipidated peptides) for vaccines is discussed, including their role as antigens and/or adjuvants. Distinct classes of lipopeptide architectures are covered including simple linear and ligated constructs and lipid core peptides.

Polymyxin and lipopeptide antibiotics: membrane-targeting drugs of last resort
The polymyxin and lipopeptide classes of antibiotics are membrane-targeting drugs of last resort used to treat infections caused by multi-drug-resistant pathogens. Despite similar structures, these two antibiotic classes have distinct modes of action and

Study on the application potential of lipopeptide fermentation broth in oil recovery
Microbial flooding is a new enhanced‐oil‐recovery technology for the petroleum industry. In this study, a strain of Bacillus subtilis named SL‐2 was isolated from oil‐well‐produced fluid. B. subtilis produces the lipopeptide surfactin.

Charting the Lipopeptidome of Nonpathogenic Pseudomonas
A major source of pseudomonad-specialized metabolites is the nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) assembling siderophores and lipopeptides. Cyclic lipopeptides (CLPs) of the Mycin and Peptin families are frequently associated with, but not restricted
