Grant Activity:
A new source of bivalent molecules from nature
Purpose:
This project aims to describe a new class of naturally occurring multivalent molecules termed secreted cysteine-rich repeat proteins (SCREPs). Multivalency is a key feature of molecular interaction in biology, underlying the high specificity and potency found in many proteins. Focusing on bivalent peptides, the project will generate a database of bioactive SCREPs with similarity to known bioactive peptides, and develop new recombinant methods for their production. The project will use advanced nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to characterise members of this new class, providing new insights into the design of bivalent and multivalent peptides and establishing a new source of molecules with applications in the rapidly growing biotechnology sector.
