“…They show beneficial biological properties, such as anticancer and anti-HIV activity, making them attractive candidates for pharmaceutical applications. Moreover, other bioactive sequences can be stabilized by grafting into cyclotide frameworks (Northfield et al, 2014).…”

“…cyclic peptide | permeability | N-methylation P eptides are potentially valuable compounds for drug development, offering many advantages over other molecular classes (1)(2)(3)(4). Specifically, their ability to mimic endogenous bioactive molecules allows them to bind potently and selectively to "difficult" drug targets, including protein-protein interactions that are too challenging for small-molecule therapeutics.…”

“…It had been proposed that the role of disulfide bonds in defensins was to bolster antimicrobial activity by allowing the peptides to remain stable in a diverse range of environments (Northfield et al, 2014). During the courses of the two simulations, the distance of sulfur atoms of Cys23 and Cys41 sometimes became larger, while the atoms were still linked for most of time.…”
