Organisms from all kingdoms of life have evolved a vast array of peptidic natural products to defend against microbes. These are known collectively as antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) or host defense peptides, reflecting their abilities to not...
On-resin strategy to label α-conotoxins: Cy5-RgIA, a potent α9α10 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor imaging probe [0.03%]
一种标记α-康托克斯毒素的新型方法:荧光染料Cy5修饰的RgIA及其在活体动物中成像α9α10型烟碱乙酰胆碱受体中的应用

Feng Lin et al.
In the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, there are eight insulin-like peptides (DILPs) with DILPs 1-7 interacting with a sole insulin-like receptor tyrosine kinase (DInR) while DILP8 interacts with a single G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR...
Photoinduced Cycloadditions in the Diversity-Oriented Synthesis Toolbox: Increasing Complexity with Straightforward Postphotochemical Modifications [0.03%]
