FEBS Open Bio, Volume 15, Issue 3, Page 415-426, March 2025.Sea stars have remarkable regenerative capabilities. A peptide, KASH2, identified in the biofluid of the common sea star Asterias rubens appears to be involved with the wound‐healing response in the organism. Here, we show the 3D structure of KASH2 adopts a disulfide‐directed β‐hairpin fold, a fold only previously found in arachnids, and does not show ...

The FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 4, 28 February 2025.Using a combination of bioinformatics, sequence and structural analyses, we designed derivatives of the parasite‐derived helminth defense molecule to determine a relationship between the peptide structure and its immune regulatory function. Screening these derivatives in a series of assays related to the activation of inflammatory macrophages, we ...
