Biological scaffolds for the peptide-directed assembly of nanoscale materials and devices
… phage display screening of inorganic substrates, functional peptides that influence material properties such as size, phase and composition during nucleation have been identified. The incorporation of these specific, nucleating peptides into the generic scaffold of the M13 coat structure provides …

Functions of alternative ClpP subunits in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
… are broken down, or hydrolyzed, into small peptides or amino acids by enzymes. Cells from all forms of life carry out regulated protein degradation as a way to control cellular physiology and regulate stress responses. Clp proteases, containing a AAA+ (A̲TPases A̲ssociated with various …

Inhibiting Protein-Protein Interactions using Rationally-designed Repeat Proteins
… be achieved through the grafting of binding peptides into the inter-repeat loops. The work focused on two PPIs: the interaction between Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) and Nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor (Nrf2) as well as the interaction between c-Myc and Myc-associated …

Interfacial bioorthogonal chemistry for biomaterials synthesis and patterning and development of catalytic method for "turning-on" the tetrazine ligation
… approach enables the facile incorporation of functional peptides into the copolymer to fine-tune its biological properties. A fibronectin-derived peptide was successfully introduced onto the fibers during the polymerization and dramatically promoted the attachment and alignment of fibroblasts …

Synthesis, surface modifications and biomedical applications of colloidal gold nanoparticles, towards controlled regulation of angiogenesis in conjunction with photo-thermal therapy
… with the gold surface. A selection of functional peptides was incorporated into the organic corona of NPs, in order to achieve desired biological activity of colloids. Functionalised NPs interacted with a certain type of human cells in a selective manner. Such selectivity was obtained …

The Role of an Ultraconserved Long Non-coding Rna in B-Cell Lymphomagenesis
… evidence revealing their ability to encode small peptides known as ncRNA-encoded peptides (ncPEPs). These peptides, originating from small open reading frames (smORFs), contribute to diverse cellular functions and are implicated in disease pathogenesis.</p>
