Reliable and precise methods capable of unambiguously identifying target analytes in real-
world samples are indispensable in various fields, ranging from biological studies and …

Abstract Cucurbit [n] urils (CBn) are glycoluril‐based macrocyclic hosts that bind many
biologically, medicinally and environmentally relevant analytes with record high affinities in …

Functionalized proline residues have diverse applications. Herein we describe a practical
approach, proline editing, for the synthesis of peptides with stereospecifically modified …

Conspectus The structures of membrane-bound polypeptides are intimately related to their
functions and may change dramatically with the lipid environment. Circular dichroism (CD) is …

There is some overlap in the biological activities of cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) and
antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). We compared nine AMPs, seven CPPs, and a fusion peptide …

The membrane alignment of the amphiphilic α-helical model peptide MSI-103 (sequence
[KIAGKIA] 3-NH2) was examined by solid state 2H-NMR in different lipid systems by …

The interaction of membranes with peptides and proteins is largely determined by their
amphiphilic character. Hydrophobic moments of helical segments are commonly derived …

Peptide-coated nanoparticles are valuable tools for diverse biological applications, such as
drug delivery, molecular recognition, and antimicrobial action. The functionalization of pre …

Solid-state 2 H-NMR is routinely used to determine the alignment of membrane-bound
peptides. Here we demonstrate that it can also provide a quantitative measure of the …

Fluorinated amino acids can have dramatic effects on protein stability and protein–protein
interactions due to the unique stereoelectronic properties of fluorine. Previous approaches …
