Abstract:Viral infection has become one of the worst human lethal diseases. In recent years, major gains have been made in the research of peptide-based antiviral agents on account of the mechanism of viral membrane fusion, among which the peptide Enfuvirtide has been listed for the treatment of AIDS. This paper reviewed a new way to design peptide-based antiviral agents by "bundling" superhelix with isopeptide bonds to construct the active advanced structure. It can solve the problem that peptide precursor compounds d… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
