Peptides are short chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds. Peptides are essentially small proteins, typically containing less than 50 amino acids. There are many types of peptides, including neuropeptides that regulate neural function, peptide hormones like insulin that regulate metabolism, and antimicrobial peptides that protect us from infection.
Some key things to know about peptides:
- Peptides are synthesized naturally in cells from amino acid building blocks. They can also be artificially made through solid-phase peptide synthesis.
- Many peptides play signaling roles in the body, binding to specific receptors on cell membranes to trigger cellular responses. Examples include neuropeptides and peptide hormones like oxytocin.
- Unique peptide sequences give peptides highly specific 3D conformations that dictate their biological activities. Even small differences in peptide sequence can completely change function.
- Peptides have become a major area of pharmaceutical research and drug development because they are potent, specific, and well-tolerated. Insulin is the most widely known peptide drug.
