In silico design of a peptide receptor for triglyceride recognition using a structure-based approach

Background: Elevated triglyceride levels constitute a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, accounting for millions of deaths annually. Current methods for triglyceride quantification rely on enzymatic assays or complex lipid panels, which present limitations in stability, cost, and turnaround time. Peptide-bas...
