Chemotaxis of Arbacia punctulata spermatozoa to resact, a peptide from the egg jelly layer [PDF]
Resact, a peptide of known sequence isolated from the jelly layer of Arbacia punctulata eggs, is a potent chemoattractant for A. punctulata spermatozoa. The chemotactic response is concentration dependent, is abolished by pretreatment of the spermatozoa ...

Design of embedded-hybrid antimicrobial peptides with enhanced cell selectivity and anti-biofilm activity. [PDF]
Antimicrobial peptides have attracted considerable attention because of their broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and their low prognostic to induce antibiotic resistance which is the most common source of failure in bacterial infection treatment along

Solution structure of a bacterial microcompartment targeting peptide and its application in the construction of an ethanol bioreactor [PDF]
Targeting of proteins to bacterial microcompartments (BMCs) is mediated by an 18-amino-acid peptide sequence. Herein, we report the solution structure of the N-terminal targeting peptide (P18) of PduP, the aldehyde dehydrogenase associated with the 1,2 ...

Solution to peptide sequencing challenge [PDF]
The cyclic peptide described is kalata B1 [1, 2] and its structure is shown in Fig. 1. The partial reduction of the cyclic peptide [2, 3] allows one to establish the disulfide connectivity. The first peptide is amino-ethylated at only {2}Cys and {5}Cys, whereas the second peptide is amino-ethylated at only {1}Cys and {4}Cys.

Mass Analysis Peptide Sequence Prediction (MAPSP) [PDF]
Abstract Summary: The software tool MAPSP allows the combinatorial prediction of novel short peptides such as hormones with common sequence features. In addition, it assists in de novo sequencing in general. The tool was designed for use in conjunction with the analytical identification method of mass spectrometry (MS) and it can ...
