The discovery of the genetic code was one of the milestone events in biology: a conserved,
universal code defining the primary amino acid sequences of all proteins of all organisms …

Tissue degradation and invasion are hallmarks of the metastatic phenotype. While several
extracellular matrix components can be digested by proteases, degradation of interstitial …

Peptides encoded in the antisense strand of DNA have been predicted and found
experimentally to bind to sense peptides and proteins with significant selectivity and affinity …

A cancer recognition factor (SCM factor) useful in the performance of the structuredness of
the cytoplasmic matrix (SCM) test has been isolated, purified to substantial homogeneity …

Introduction: A sense peptide can be defined as a peptide whose sequence is coded by the
nucleotide sequence (read 5→ 3) of the sense (positive) strand of DNA. Conversely, an …

Since the inception of affinity chromatography 30 years ago (1), it has developed into a
powerful tool mainly for the purification of proteins. It is based on the reversible formation of …

The possibility of designing sequence-directed recognition peptides (complementary
peptides) able to noncovalently associate target peptides or proteins is one of the most …

A peptide hydropathically complementary to Big Endothelin [Big ET] residues 16‐29 has
been synthesized in a multimeric form starting from an octadentate poiylysine core …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses amino acids and peptides, and the detection
methods used to identify them. All primary amino acids form the same complex following …

Synthetic antisense peptides encoded in the antisense strands of DNA corresponding to the
1-14, 42-54 and 103-115 fragments of the human interferon-β sequence were applied in the …
