Induction and destruction of folding motifs in cyclotides by cyclic cystine knots

Multivariate roles of cyclic cystine knots (CCK) present in cyclotides are well known. More than often this marvellous combination of disulphide linkages embedded in a macrocyclic backbone is seen to induce and stabilize otherwise unfavourable secondary structural motifs in peptides. Partial or comp...
