  1. FROMNATURETOLAB: DISCOVERINGANTI- CANCERPEPTIDES AHBLAB

  2. AboutUs Inarecentinvestigation,scientistsfromtheAHBLab found novel peptides with anti-cancer potential. According to a study published in Nature Communications,itwasshownthatcyclicpeptides particularly link to chains of ubiquitin proteins, which are widely utilised as a “death tag” for damagedproteins.Theproteasomethenbreaksdown the damaged proteins after marking them. Beforenow,Technionresearcherscreatedastrategy for altering the ubiquitin processes. They chose to tryadirectinterventionintheubiquitinchainrather than affecting the activity of enzymes that influence these pathways.

  3. PeptideTypes Apeptideisanaminoacid(AA)chainlessthan50 amino acids long and you can stabilize by disulfide bonds. Although they have adequate biochemicalandtherapeuticdifferences,theyare sufficiently different from small molecules and macromolecules in size. By using logical approaches, they can create peptides that preciselybindtoandcontrolproteininteractions of interest, such as those involving oncogenic proteins.Thethreemainprocessesthatproduce peptides are as follows: ) Natural or bioactive peptides, ) Genetic or recombinant libraries used to synthesize modified peptides, )Peptidesproducedfromchemicallibraries.

  4. Howarenewcancer treatmentsfound? Accidental finding Testing flora, fauna, and other organisms The investigation of cancer cell biology Recognizing a drug target’s chemical make-up It is creating medications similar to currently available drugs called O2P®
