Creative Peptides -Creative Peptides Design Platform
Peptides play a crucial role in fundamental physiological and biochemical functions of life. For decades now, peptide research is a continuously growing field of science. Synthetic peptides may be useful in structure-function studies of polypeptides, as peptide hormones and hormone analogues, in the preparation of cross-reacting antibodies, and in the design of novel anti-microbial and anti-cancer drugs. Synthetic peptides are widely used for the following purposes: - To verify the structure of naturally occurring peptides as determined by degradation techniques - To study the relationship between structure and activity of biologically active protein and peptides and establish their molecular mechanisms - To develop new peptide-based immunogens, hormones, vaccines, etc Peptide Drugs Peptide drugs are either naturally-occurring peptides or altered natural peptides. There are many naturally-occurring peptides that are biologically active.
