Probing protein sequences as sources for encrypted antimicrobial peptides [PDF]
, 2012 Starting from the premise that a wealth of potentially biologically active peptides may lurk within proteins, we describe here a methodology to identify putative antimicrobial peptides encrypted in protein sequences.

A theoretical analysis of secondary structural characteristics of anticancer peptides [PDF]
, 2009 Here, cluster analysis showed that a database of 158 peptides formed 21 clusters based on net positive charge, hydrophobicity and amphiphilicity. In general these clusters showed similar median toxicities (p = 0.176) against eukaryotic cell lines and no ...
