Bactericidal Peptidomimetic Polyurethanes with Remarkable Selectivity against Escherichia coli.
The increasing incidence of drug-resistant strains of bacteria necessitates the development of new classes of antimicrobials. Host defense peptides, also known as antimicrobial peptides, are promising in this regard but have several drawbacks. Herein, we

In Silico Structure‐Guided Design of Peptide Candidates Targeting γ‐Secretase Subunit Assembly
ABSTRACT The γ‐secretase complex is a membrane‐embedded protease essential for intramembrane cleavage of substrates such as Notch receptors and the amyloid precursor protein (APP), processes central to cancer progression and Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology.

Antimicrobial Cyclic Peptidomimetics
ABSTRACTAntimicrobial resistance is a critical global healthcare issue that urgently needs the development of new antimicrobial agents. Herein, we developed new and discrete cationic amphipathic cyclic peptidomimetics as potential antimicrobial agents to combat multidrug‐resistant bacteria.

Abstract Background and Purpose Kinases phosphorylate ion channels, but their noncatalytic roles via protein–protein interactions (PPI) are less understood. Here, we identified the peptidomimetic ZL141 to characterize the PPI between GSK3β and Nav1.6, revealing a noncatalytic role for GSK3β in regulating Nav1.6 currents and neuronal excitability ...

Heterocycles in Peptidomimetics and Pseudopeptides: Design and Synthesis
This minireview provides a brief outline of the peculiar aspects of the preparation of peptidomimetic and pseudopeptidic structures containing heterocycles. In particular novel tricyclic structures are investigated as potential drugs.

Late‐Stage Functionalization of Peptides on the Solid Phase
Peptide modifications are essential to control pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic properties of peptide drugs. Consequently, strategies that allow for efficient and rapid incorporation of non‐canonical modifications into peptides in parallel formats are highly sought after.

A solid-phase procedure is used to synthesize racemic peptidomimetics based on the fundamental peptide unit. The peptidomimetics are constructed around proline or proline homologues variably substituted at the amine and carbonyl sites.
