N-terminal acetylation modulates peptide stability, fibrillogenesis and MMP-7 processing
Short self-assembling peptides are versatile building blocks for enzyme-responsive nanostructured biomaterials. Here, we investigate how N -terminal acetylation affects the stability, fibrillogenesis, and protease-mediated fragment formation of two modular peptides, ug51 and ug52, composed of a fibrillogenic QA...
