Published in 2022 at "Journal of Peptide Science"

DOI: 10.1002/psc.3401

Abstract: Alyteserin‐2a (ILGKLLSTAAGLLSNLNH2) is isolated from the skin exudates of midwife toad and has a wide range of biological applications. However, the use of alyteserin‐2a as an antitumor agent is limited due to its structural flexibility.… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "International Journal of Peptide Research and Therapeutics"

DOI: 10.1007/s10989-019-09964-7

Abstract: Most existing antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are α-helical and cationic that exhibit typical amphipathic feature to facilitate efficient interaction with bacterial outer membranes. However, short α-helix is unstable in water, and thus naturally occurring α-helical AMPs… read more here.
