L,L-diphenylalanine has been employed in the formation of self-assembled peptide nanotubes with great potential for the development of biosensors, molecular carriers, and optoelectronic devices. They are usually formed in ...

Growth hormone releasing peptide, GHRP-6, a hexapeptide (His-(D-Trp)-Ala-Trp-(D-Phe)-Lys-NH2, MW = 872.44 Da) that belongs to a class of synthetic growth hormone secretagogues, can stimulate growth hormone secretion from ...

Antimicrobial resistance has reached alarming levels in many countries, thus leading to a search for new classes of antibiotics, such as antimicrobial peptides whose activity is exerted by interacting specifically with the ...

We have covalently conjugated an N-terminus Plasmodium vivax apical membrane antigen-1 (AMA-1) peptide to functionalized carbon nanotubes (f-CNT). Immunological characterization of this molecular conjugate revealed that ...

The self-assembly of short amino acid chains appears to be one of the most promising strategies for the fabrication of nanostructures. Their solubility in water and the possibility of chemical modification by targeting the ...
