Universal Peptidomimetics [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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.
