The drawback of synthetic peptides is that theyre largely limited to short chains of up to 50 amino acids, as longer peptides present a greater challenge from a large-scale-manufacturing perspective.13 Recombinant peptides Recombinant peptides are those produced via recombinant DNA technology, by which scientists manipulate and isolate DNA segments to express the genes of specific peptides.14 Think of it as the Venn common ground between the bioactive and the synthetic, a biotechnological hybrid relying on both organic and laboratory processes
