✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Gonadotropic peptides are a new generation of peptide hormone regulators of insect reproduction. They have been isolated from ovaries, oviducts, or brains of insects. The subject of this paper is insect peptides that exert stimulatory or inhibitory effects on ovarian development and oocyte maturation. On the basis of the literature data and the results of our investigations, the structure and biological properties of different groups of peptides are presented.

## Abstract The subject of this review is plant signalling peptides, peptides of a new generation which regulate growth, differentiation, and other plant physiological functions. These peptides include systemin, the phytosulfokines (PSKs), ENOD40, CLAVATA3, Locus‐S, POLARIS, IDA, and ROT4. On the b

Molecular imprinting and phage display library technologies are rapidly being accepted as useful techniques for the generation of ligand-selective recognition motifs. The use of molecular imprinting to produce a novel type 11 aldolase mimic selective for the cobalt(I1)-mediated aldol condensation of
