![]() Generator (PepCoGen), which is the first freeware to assist the researchers Previously were found to be more accurate 22, 23 and can be used for generating models using the string format generated However, the 3D models were generated accuratelyįor the peptides having a length of up to 8 amino acids. Tab, in a separate window using the JSmol library ( Figure S9). Models can be generated, by clicking on the model icon in the corresponding The hydropathy index is displaced in a new window along ![]() Positions, we generated 3125 combinations ( Figure S7). With length 5, having the possibility of hydrophobic residues at all For instance, for calculating the combinations for the peptide Index, and a random 3D model ( Figure S6). Molecular weight, isoelectric point, charge, solubility, and hydropathy For the advanced module (which is limitedįor generating combinations of up to 0.1 million), all the combinationsĪre listed along with the calculated physiochemical properties including Hydrophobic amino acids for positions 5 and 6, the total possibleĬombinations generated were 900, which were displayed on the browser Sequence length 6 and having the possibility of acidic amino acidsįor positions 1 and 2, basic amino acids for positions 3 and 4, and For example,įor calculating the number of combinations for the peptide having Peptide sequences based on the selected properties are calculatedįor both the modules ( Figure S5). The request on the front end, all the possible combinations of the Selecting the sequence of the peptide fragment ranging from 4 to 21Ī drop-down menu will pop up asking the user to select the desiredĪmino acids having the selected physiochemical property for each position In both basic and advanced modules, after initially Therefore, we restricted the length of peptides The peptide length can be increased, but the computational cost ofĬalculating all the physiochemical properties was found to be highįor such peptides. Of peptides has been focused on developing peptides of these lengths. To 21 residues have been explored, as mostly the wet lab synthesis Properties for all the combinations as well. The peptide sequence, while the advanced modules calculate the physiochemical Module only calculates the total combinations along with The front end of the web server is illustrated in Figure Figure1 1. We have developed a user-friendly web server, which can be freelyĪccessed at. To predict all such combinations for the peptide, Residues having similar properties at a particular position in the Of the peptides by varying or mutating the amino acids with other Tool or web server, which could generate all the possible combination Uncharged based on their physiochemical properties 26− 28 ( Table S1). Hydrophobic (aliphatic), aromatic, basic, acidic, unique, and polar The 20 amino acids can be differentiated into six broad groups, namely, Peptide libraries are also usedĪs enzyme substrates, ligands, or inhibitors in biochemical studies. Linear peptide libraries provide a rapid route to mapping of the linear Ideal for “T-cell epitope mapping and searching”. Purposes and identifying bioactive peptides. 25 They provideĪ quick and economical solution for a wide range of bioactivity screening 24 Peptide libraries are routinely used as a powerful 18 Similarly, there has also been an increase inĬomputational methods for the prediction of therapeutic peptides, 11, 19, 20 peptide structure, 21, 22 peptide docking, 23 and peptide binding. Of combinatorial methods for discovery of membrane-active peptides 17 and cell-permeable bicyclic peptides. 16 There has been an increase in the development 13, 15 Similarly, peptidesįrom snake venom have been used for therapeutic purposes. Including insulin, calcitonin, oxytocin, and vasopressin have been More than 60 FDA-approved peptide drugs in the market, and more thanġ50 peptide drugs are in clinical trials and more than 500 therapeutic Tolerability, efficacy, and excellent pharmacological profile, peptides 12 Moreover, owing to their high specificity, safety, Interactions by peptides and thereby therapeutic intervention of variousĭisease-causing pathways have been the key for peptide drug design. Peptide sequences are constituents of bigger proteins, where theyĪssist in molecular recognition and various biological functions byĪcting as precursors for proteins, 1 alkaloids, 2 hormones, 3 anti-malarialĪgents, 4 antimicrobial agents, 5− 7 anti-oxidants, 8 anti-neurodegenerative, 9 immunogens, 10 and Research has experienced revolution because of commercial reasons. The past decade, peptides have gained diverse applications inīoth medicine and biotechnology moreover, the therapeutic peptide
