Coffee processing generates a huge amount of waste that contains many natural products. Here, we report the discovery of a panel of novel cell-penetrating and metal ion-binding microproteins designated coffeetide cC1a–c and cL1–6 from the husk of two popular coffee plants, Coffea canephora and Coffe...
