Custom peptide synthesis involves making peptide drugs that stimulate hormone action. Read to know about the global peptide synthesis market. 

Did you know that the global custom peptide synthesis market recorded a revenue of USD 379.99 in 2018 and might reach USD 1,011.99 million by 2026? The peptide synthesis market has three segments based on the product name, equipment, reagents & consumables, and others. Peptide synthesis equipment has yet across four sub-segments including protein synthesizers, lyophilizers, chromatography equipment, and others. Extensive research targeted towards the manufacturing of novel peptide synthesis equipment is the reason behind the fastest growth in the global market. 

Peptides possess favorable tissue penetration and the capability to engage in specific and high-affinity interactions with endogenous receptors. These positive attributes of peptides have driven research in evaluating peptides as versatile tools for drug discovery and delivery. 

What Are The Grey Areas Of Peptide Synthesis?

Chemical synthesis is a conventional and also, most widely used technology used for peptide production. However, lack of specificity along with the risk of increasing environmental burden can hamper the growth of chemical peptide synthesis. This led to the adoption of enzymatic technology for the synthesis of peptides.

According to peptide manufacturing companies, there are a few disadvantages associated with this technology. This includes:

• Lesser productivity, 

• Expensive biocatalysts, and 

• Lack of validation protocols 

How To Mitigate The Risks At Hand?

Currently, with advanced research and also, development focused on developing an apt peptide synthesis technology, a combination approach came up. This consists of both enzymatic and chemical synthesis covering the benefits of both technologies. 

Around a dozen or so peptide drugs are currently undergoing advanced clinical testing. Moreover, the peptide therapeutics that are already on the market target a broad range of indications. The experts administer these drugs either intravenously, or orally or by inhalation. So, many researchers are working on optimizing the delivery of these drugs.
