Peptides aren’t just having a moment, they’re helping solve one of science's biggest challenges
In last month’s issue of npj Antimicrobials and Resistance, researchers used non-canonical amino acids from Chem-Impex to create light-activated peptide probes that capture bacterial membrane protein interactions in real time.
Understanding these interactions is key to tackling antimicrobial resistance (AMR)—one of the biggest threats to global health.

Using these building blocks, the team engineered probes with precise cross-linking ability—shedding light (literally) on how drug-resistant bacteria survive.
These tools go beyond the lab—they bring new hope in the fight against resistant infections.
