Peptide antibiotics fall into two broad classes whose evolutionary biology is very different. The first is a large and heterogeneous category of peptides that are synthesized on very large, modular enzyme complexes by bacteria and fungi... The second category is quite different. It comprises linear peptides consisting almost entirely of conventional amino acid residues that are produced by all major kinds of organisms(including microbes). These are translated using ribosomes in the usual fashion of protein synthesis, and we therefore call them RAMPs, for ribosomally synthesized antimicrobial peptides, to distinguish them from the non-RAMPs of the first category. 2, record 1, English, - non%2Dribosomally%20synthesized%20antimicrobial%20peptide

The basal lamina proteins laminin and type IV collagen possess unique biological activities that play a central role in cell proliferation, cell differentiation and tissue development. These large heterogeneous molecules are composed of three protein chains intertwined to form complex triple-helical structures containing numerous receptor binding domains. BioStratum has developed recombinant methods and clones to produced full length, biologically active, type IV collagen hains and heterotrimer laminin molecules, a major scientific advancement for such large and complex matrix molecules. 1, record 3, English, - laminin
