De Novo Discovery of Nonstandard Thioisoindole-Bridged Bicyclic Peptides Targeting Traf2- and NCK-Interacting Kinase. [PDF]
Angew Chem Int Ed EnglAn optimized strategy for the ribosomal synthesis of thioisoindole‐bridged bicyclic (TiB) peptides is incorporated into the RaPID platform, enabling high‐throughput discovery from topologically defined TiB libraries. Proof‐of‐concept selection against TNIK identifies nanomolar‐affinity ligands with inhibitory activity, while x‐ray crystallography ...
