Making Blank Faces Expressive: Chemical Approaches to the Modification of Chemically Inert Peptides. [PDF]
As an alternative to the conventional approach, which combines amino acid monomers in a one‐by‐one fashion to peptide derivatives, the chemical modification of existing peptides has attracted significant attention in recent years. However, such approaches generally target the reactive functional groups in cysteine and lysine residues, particularly in ...

Multiple-Peptidase Mutants of Lactococcus lactis Are Severely Impaired in Their Ability To Grow in Milk [PDF]
To examine the contribution of peptidases to the growth of Lactococcus lactis in milk, 16 single- and multiple-deletion mutants were constructed. In successive rounds of chromosomal gene replacement mutagenesis, up to all five of the following peptidase ...
