Design and Synthesis of Novel Peptides to Protect Ferulic Acid against Ultraviolet Radiation Based on Domain Site IIA of Bovine Serum Albumin

Design and Synthesis of Novel Peptides to Protect Ferulic Acid against Ultraviolet Radiation Based on Domain Site IIA of Bovine Serum Albumin

Ferulic acid (FA) is known for its excellent antioxidant properties, which can provide many health benefits. One of its drawbacks is its instability under UVA light, which limits its potency. In this study, the new peptides LW2 (QNKRFYFRKNQ) and CW2 (a cyclic form of LW2) were designed based on bovi...
