  2. Cyclic peptide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_peptide

    Cyclic peptides in plants are synthesized via a two-step process; the translation of a linear peptide chain, and its subsequent formation into a cyclic structure through activities of a protease-like enzyme or other ways. [6] [7] [8] Some peptides, such as cyclotides, are gene-coded products obtained by the processing of larger precursor proteins.

  3. Cyclotide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclotide

    The stunting effect of kalata B1 cyclic peptide on growth and development of Helicoverpa punctigera, a caterpillar from the Lepidopteran order. [6]Cyclotides have been reported to have a wide range of biological activities, including anti-HIV, insecticidal, anti-tumour, antifouling, anti-microbial, hemolytic, neurotensin antagonism, trypsin inhibition, and uterotonic activities.

  4. Split-intein circular ligation of peptides and proteins

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split-intein_circular...

    [3] Circular peptides tend to be resistant to protease activity, and may be suitable for use as orally administered drugs. Once a cyclic peptide is identified with a biological activity of interest, it may also be possible to identify the target of the peptide (a gene that encodes a protein with which it interacts) by functional complementation ...

  5. Ipglycermides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ipglycermides

    With advances in the generation of very large synthetic cyclic peptide libraries and in vitro affinity-based selection methods, [2] scientists have begun to harness the potential of this molecular modality as a template for novel ligands in drug development and other applications. However, while approaches in de novo discovery of synthetic high ...

  6. Arginylglycylaspartic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arginylglycylaspartic_acid

    [44] [30] For example, the cyclic peptide ACDCRGDCFCG, also known as RGD4C, was shown to be 200-fold more potent than commonly used linear RGD peptides. [30] The structural rigidity of cyclic RGD peptides improves their binding properties and prevents degradation at the highly susceptible aspartic acid residue, thereby increasing their ...

  7. Diketopiperazine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diketopiperazine

    DKP's are the smallest known class of cyclic peptide. [1] Despite their name, they are not ketones, but amides. Three regioisomers are possible, differing in the locations of the carbonyl groups. Retosiban [2] is a diketopiperazine being investigated as an oral drug. One isomer is an oxamide obtained from ethylenediamine.
