Here, we show experimentally that the redox state (activity of H-2) of the aqueous fluids plays a key role in the stability of glutamic acid during hydrothermal processes. The results demonstrate that ...

To examine the relationship between the physicochemical properties of the peptide and its biological activity, we have synthesized variants of protegrin-1 in which key residues in the hydrophobic core ...
