The current wound-healing collagen mimetic peptides (CMPs) have limitations such as poor membrane permeability and protease susceptibility. Herein, the solid-phase peptide synthesis of CMPs containing integrin binding motif GFOGER is reported. sequences also consist lipophilic moieties (adamantane palmitic acid) for improved different collagen-inducing tripeptides, namely, Thr-Thr-Lys (TTK), Gl...

All proteins of this world are constructed in compliance with the same rule. Accordingly, two totally unrelated proteins, on the average, share 30 identical tripeptides, two tetrapeptides, and one pentapeptide per 500 residues. With this in mind, the 221-residue-long influenza virus hemagglutinin II (IVHA-II), as a representative of alien antigens, was compared with three diverse proteins repre...
