PEPNET Newsletter

Peptide chemistry is constantly changing. We created our newsletter, PEPNET, to keep you abreast of many of the exciting new developments arising in the expanded field of peptide chemistry. PEPNET has been published regularly since 1987.

PEPNET is a company and technical newsletter from Peptides International that provides scientists with the latest developments in peptide chemistry and related fields. It is a colorful and thoughtful guide to some of the new products available, emerging research trends, and happenings in the explosive field of peptide-related research. In each newsletter you will probably discover some of the reasons that we feel peptide science is one of the premiere areas in modern scientific research.

Just consider some of the breakthrough areas that had their origins in the peptide field:

• Peptide-based Therapies- insulin, growth hormones, growth regulators, fuzeon™
• Enzyme Inhibitors - modified peptides, peptide aldehydes, chloromethyl ketones, amide bond surrogates, transition state amide isosteres
• Solid Phase Synthesis - Boc, Fmoc and other chemistry strategies
• Peptide Mimetics
• Combinatorial Chemistry - peptides on a pin, tea bag synthesis
• Solid Phase Synthesis - Boc, Fmoc and other chemistry strategies
• Multiple Antigenic Peptides - peptide vaccines, dual epitopes

Although we endeavor to update this website as often as possible, PEPNET also affords us the opportunity to inform you of the array of new products that we offer. If you wish to be entered onto the subscription list for our newsletter, please click on the Mailing List Request link or contact us by telephone, fax, or email peptides@pepnet.com .
