1 Introduction With their intermediate size between proteins and peptides, miniproteins are large enough to host complex structures yet small enough to be produced by chemical synthesis. This makes them ideal for dissecting the sequence–structure–function paradigm [1]. Their amenability to chemical synthesis also allows the incorporation of noncanonical amino acids and other synthetic modifications, enabling exploration of the chemical space beyond natural biological constraints.

You know the saying, “When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time?” Jaahnavi Kandula should be alive. Charleena Lyles should be alive. John T. Williams should be alive. The Seattle Police Department has been telling us who they are for a very long time. Why won’t we believe them?
