Fz7-21 ((Ac)-LPSDDLEFWCHVMY-NH2) is a peptide antagonist of FZD7 . It antagonises WNT3A-induced Wnt-β-catenin signalling in HEK293 expressing FZD7. Fz7-21 impairs Wnt/β-catenin signaling in HEK293 cells stimulated with exogenous WNT3A (IC50=100 nM) or transfected with a construct expressing WNT3A or WNT1. Fz7-21 also blocks WNT3A-mediated stabilization of β-catenin in mouse L cells (IC50=50 nM).

KALA, an amphiphilic peptide, adopts an α-helical conformation under physiological pH conditions. It functions as a fusogenic peptide, modifying the liposomal membrane that encapsulates plasmid DNA, thereby facilitating liver targeting and DNA transfection through galactose receptors.

[Glu4]-Oxytocin is a suitable derivative of oxytocin for conducting a thorough investigation, utilizing various methods, into the conformation of oxytocin-like molecules in aqueous solution.

PK7088, a pyrazole-based peptide, selectively reactivates mutant p53 to a conformation with wild-type characteristics, demonstrating anticancer activity in oncological studies [1].

Vitronectin, a multifunctional glycoprotein found in blood and the extracellular matrix, interacts with glycosaminoglycans, collagen, plasminogen, and the urokinase-receptor, in addition to stabilizing the inhibitory conformation of plasminogen activation inhibitor-1. It is utilized in research related to wound healing and tumor progression [1].

RGD peptide (GRGDNP) (TFA) promote apoptosis through activation of conformation changes that enhance pro-caspase-3 activation and autoprocessing.

Antagonist of TrkB receptors; inhibits BDNF-induced TrkB activity (IC50 = 0.30 nM). Allosterically alters TrkB receptor conformation but does not alter BDNF binding. Prevents BDNF-induced cold allodynia in mice. Also shown to exhibit putative anxiolytic p

Cyclotraxin B acetate is an antagonist of TrkB receptors; inhibits BDNF-induced TrkB activity (IC50 = 0.30 nM). Allosterically alters TrkB receptor conformation but does not alter BDNF binding. Prevents BDNF-induced cold allodynia in mice. Also shown to exhibit putative anxiolytic properties in mice.

Lamin fragment has a peptide sequence of Lys-Ala-Gly-Gln-Val-Val-Thr-Ile-Trp. Lamin polypeptides have an almost complete α-helical conformation with multiple α-helical domains separated by non-α-helical linkers that are highly conserved in length and amin
