General Questions

Great question! Peptides are simply chains of amino acids (the building blocks of proteins) linked together. Think of them like beads on a necklace, where each bead is an amino acid.

When amino acids join together, they form what’s called a peptide bond. This happens when the amino group (–NHâ‚‚) of one amino acid connects with the carboxyl group (–COOH) of another, releasing a tiny water molecule in the process.

How we make peptides in the lab:

We use a precise method called Solid-Phase Peptide Synthesis (SPPS). Here’s the process:

  1. Start with the anchor: We attach the first amino acid to a solid resin bead (think of it as our workspace)
  2. Add protective groups: We temporarily protect certain parts of the amino acid to prevent unwanted reactions
  3. Build the chain: We add amino acids one at a time, forming peptide bonds in the exact sequence needed
  4. Release and purify: Once complete, we carefully remove the peptide from the resin, remove all protective groups, and purify it
  5. Freeze-dry: Finally, we lyophilise (freeze-dry) the peptide to create a stable powder
