Cyclic peptides are attractive for drug discovery due to their excellent binding properties and the potential to cross cell membranes. However, by far, not all cyclic peptides are cell permeable, and measuring or predicting their membrane permeabilit...
Small cyclic peptides have gained significant traction as a therapeutic modality; however, the development of deep learning methods for accurately designing such peptides has been slow, mostly due to the lack of sufficiently large training sets. Here...
BACKGROUND: Cyclic peptides, known for their high binding affinity and low toxicity, show potential as innovative drugs for targeting "undruggable" proteins. However, their therapeutic efficacy is often hindered by poor membrane permeability. Over th...
