Chemistry of the Amanita Peptide Toxins
2018Extraordinary advances in scientific methodologies during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries enabled chemists to isolate and characterize biologically active molecules from all branches of the tree of life. Biochemicals (such as DNA, RNA, proteins, and lipids) that are essential for the basic cellular processes of life are known as primary ...

Molluscs toxin peptides in cardiovascular disease management
Natural Product ResearchThis letter emphasizes the potential of mollusc toxin peptides as innovative treatments for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Given the rising incidence of CVDs and the limitations of current therapies, new approaches are essential. Molluscs produce bioactive peptides that show promising anti-hypertensive, anti-thrombotic, and cardio-protective ...

Omic Analysis of Protein and Peptide Toxins in Food
2017Food products can be contaminated by toxic proteins and peptides derived from many different flources at any stage of the production chain. Food contamination represents a major public health concern, and for this reason, monitoring of food production has become crucial for preventing food poisfining.

Biological Activities of the Amanita Peptide Toxins
2018The amatoxins, phallotoxins, cycloamanides, and antamanide belong to the special class of secondary metabolites known as cyclic peptides or cyclopeptides – strings of amino acids in which the N and C termini are joined head-to-tail by amide (peptide) bonds ( Chap. 2).

Peptide toxins: structure, stability and engineering
2018This thesis is an investigation of peptide toxins from animal venom, aimed to determine the utility of the scorpion toxin HsTX1, as well as the conotoxins H_Vc7.1, H_Vc7.2 and contryphan-Vc2. Part of the work includes efforts undertaken to validate the scorpion toxin HsTX1 from the species Heterometrus spinifer as a scaffold structure for peptide ...

Peptide Toxins that Alter Neurotransmitter Release
1994Despite the fundamental importance of quantal transmitter release in neural communication, there is only limited information available on the detailed mechanism(s) involved (Valtorta et al. 1990; Tauc and Poulain 1991). Clearly, progress with this challenging problem ought to be achieved by identifying molecular components in nerve terminals concerned ...
