Tripeptide arginine-glycine-aspartic acid

Historically, these peptides were identified by isolating domains ofinterest from naturally evolved proteins. The tripeptide RGD sequence (arginine-glycine—aspartic acid), a commonly used cell-adhesion domain, is a prime example of this. RGD was isolated in 1983 from the extracellular and plasma protein fibronectin and was identified as the minimal sequence necessary to promote cell-attachment properties (Pierschbacher and Ruoslahti 1984). Other commonly used domains include elastin-hke sequences, which are derived from the protein elastin found in connective tissue (Meyer and Chilkoti 2002), and recombinant-silks (Prince et al. 1995). Both of these peptide domains are used to confer their unique mechanical properties (i.e., resilience, elasticity, and strength) to the resulting biomaterial. [Pg.76]

Polymer additives can improve manufacturing processes and product quality, as they aid the formation of a continuous coating phase without any detrimental effect to the polymer. Biomedical applications of acrylic terpolymer with arginylglycylaspartic acid, i.e., a tripeptide composed of L-arginine, glycine and L-aspartic acid peptides, have been studied by Fussell and Cooper [39]. Chauhan and co-workers have investigated the biological activities of synthesised terpolymers based on p-hydroxybenzaldehyde... [Pg.221]
