For example, β-sheets, which are sheet-like structures formed via hydrogen bonds between adjacent peptide strands, play a crucial role in protein stability and folding. They are also implicated in ...

In conclusion, we would like to emphasize two points: first, the importance of the cis conformation of peptide bonds in protein structures, especially if it is a Xaa–nonPro peptide bond ...

Increasing evidence suggests that mechanical load on the αβ T cell receptor (TCR) is crucial for recognizing the antigenic peptide-loaded major histocompatibility complex (pMHC) molecule. Our recent ...

A newly developed approach can precisely produce four-stranded β-sheets through metal–peptide coordination, report ...

Within a protein, multiple amino acids are linked together by peptide bonds, thereby forming a long chain. Peptide bonds are formed by a biochemical reaction that extracts a water molecule as it ...

This longevity is particularly surprising considering the relatively short half-life (just 500 years) of peptide bonds — the ...
