New VIP Paper by Süssmuth and Dittmann on Design of Synthetic Protease-Targeted Libraries
Microviridins are a family of ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides with a highly unusual architecture featuring non-canonical lactone as well as lactam rings. Individual variants specifically inhibit different types of serine proteases.
