Short Cationic Peptidomimetic Antimicrobials [PDF]

Antibiotics, 2019
The rapid growth of antimicrobial resistance against several frontline antibiotics has encouraged scientists worldwide to develop new alternatives with unique mechanisms of action. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have attracted considerable interest due to

Adaptive evolution of Escherichia coli to an α-peptide/β-peptoid peptidomimetic induces stable resistance. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and synthetic analogues thereof target conserved structures of bacterial cell envelopes and hence, development of resistance has been considered an unlikely event.

Cyclic Peptoid-Peptide Hybrids as Versatile Molecular Transporters

Frontiers in Chemistry, 2021
Addressing intracellular targets is a challenging task that requires potent molecular transporters capable to deliver various cargos. Herein, we report the synthesis of hydrophobic macrocycles composed of both amino acids and peptoid monomers. The cyclic

The Antimicrobial, Antibiofilm and Anti-Inflammatory Activities of P13#1, a Cathelicidin-like Achiral Peptoid

Pharmaceuticals, 2023
Cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAMPs) are powerful molecules with antimicrobial, antibiofilm and endotoxin-scavenging activities. These properties make CAMPs very attractive drugs in the face of the rapid increase in multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens,

Universal Peptidomimetics [PDF]

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2010
This paper concerns peptidomimetic scaffolds that can present side chains in conformations resembling those of amino acids in secondary structures without incurring excessive entropic or enthalpic penalties. Compounds of this type are referred to here as minimalist mimics.

Peptide–Protein Interactions: From Drug Design to Supramolecular Biomaterials

Molecules, 2021
The self-recognition and self-assembly of biomolecules are spontaneous processes that occur in Nature and allow the formation of ordered structures, at the nanoscale or even at the macroscale, under thermodynamic and kinetic equilibrium as a consequence ...

Peptidomimetics and Their Applications for Opioid Peptide Drug Discovery

Biomolecules, 2022
Despite various advantages, opioid peptides have been limited in their therapeutic uses due to the main drawbacks in metabolic stability, blood-brain barrier permeability, and bioavailability.
