“…20 Cyclic peptides have proven to be excellent candidates for cancer therapy, 21 organ transplantation 22 and inhibition of amyloid aggregation. 23,24 Their size and functional properties ensure that the contact area is large enough to provide high selectivity, 25 their ability to form salt-bridges and hydrogen bonds can lead to strong binding affinities, 26 and cyclization increases their proteolytic stability. 27 Amyloid-forming polypeptides, such as amyloid-b (Ab 42 ), a-synuclein (a-syn) and amylin (hIAPP), share the intrinsic disorder independently of their size or residue sequence.…”
