However, some nascent peptides interact with the ribosomal tunnel and rearrange the internal structure, resulting in elongation stalling—known as "translation arrest." Interestingly, translation ...

We show here that these diverse peptide sequences bind with comparable affinities to the Numb PTB domain at a common binding site on the surface of the protein. The NMR structure of the Numb PTB ...

Livagen peptide, a short-chain molecule derived from thymic tissues, has garnered attention recently for its intriguing ...

which are little molecules that are the building blocks of peptides and proteins. The structure of peptides is similar to that of certain hormones or messaging compounds already present in your body.

Researchers have developed peptide-based hydrogels that mimic the aligned structure of muscle and nerve tissues, which could enable the development of functional lab-grown tissue. A team of ...

They found that when in the fluid of the eye, the peptides naturally aggregated to form a small, gel-like depot, a structure that keeps the peptide inside the eye for longer. "The peptide self ...
