What structure-activity work exists on mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptides?
The short answer
Answered from published research literature only. It describes what that literature examines; it is not a statement about use in people. SS-31 is investigational research material and is not an approved product.
Structure-activity work on this tetrapeptide class varies the residues and reports how bilayer association and interaction profile change with them.3591304432554501
The interaction landscape has been mapped directly, which is what a structure-activity series is measured against.3255450132273339
