Covering: 1988 to 2012 This review presents recommended nomenclature for the
biosynthesis of ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs) …

This Review explores the class of plant-derived macrocyclic peptides called cyclotides. We
include an account of their discovery, characterization, and distribution in the plant kingdom …

Since early 2008, an increasing number of countries have ratified an international treaty to
ban the application of antifouling (AF) coatings based on organotin compounds (eg …

Objectives To determine the antibacterial activity of small cyclic plant proteins, ie cyclotides,
and the importance of the surface exposed charged residues for activity. Methods Prototypic …

Cyclotides are disulfide-rich miniproteins with the unique structural features of a circular
backbone and knotted arrangement of three conserved disulfide bonds. Cyclotides have …

Proteases can catalyze both peptide bond cleavage and formation, yet the hydrolysis
reaction dominates in nature. This presents an interesting challenge for the biosynthesis of …

Cyclotides are plant proteins whose defining struc-tural features are a head-to-tail cyclized
backbone and three interlocking disulfide bonds, which in combination are known as a …

Cyclotides are plant-derived cyclic peptides that have a head-to-tail cyclic backbone and
three conserved disulphide bonds that form a cyclic cystine knot motif. They occur in plants …

Cyclotides are plant derived mini-proteins with compact folded structures and exceptional
stability. Their stability derives from a head-to-tail cyclized backbone coupled with a cystine …

Golden apple snails (Pomacea canaliculata) are serious pests of rice in South East Asia.
Cyclotides are backbone cyclized peptides produced by plants from Rubiaceae and …
