  • Poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) antimalaria conjugates of membrane-disruptive peptides 
    Jokonya, Simbarashe; Langlais, Marvin; Leshabane, Meta Kgaogelo; Reader, Paul W.; Vosloo, Johan A.; Pfukwa, Rueben; Coertzen, Dina; Birkholtz, Lyn-Marie; Rautenbach, Marina; Klumperman, Bert (American Chemical Society, 2020-11)
    The concepts of polymer–peptide conjugation and self-assembly were applied to antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) in the development of a targeted antimalaria drug delivery construct. This study describes the synthesis of α-acetal, ...
  • Tuber storage proteins as potential precursors of bioactive peptides : an in silico analysis 
    Ibrahim, Mohammed Auwal; Bester, Megan Jean; Neitz, Albert Walter Herman; Gaspar, Anabella Regina Marques (Springer, 2019-06)
    In silico analysis was used to evaluate storage proteins from plant tubers as potential precursors of bioactive peptides after simulated gastrointestinal digestion. Proteins derived from potato (patatins), sweet potato ...
