Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Chemical peptide synthesis allows the generation of structurally highly diverse compounds suited for ligand development, but current methods in parallel peptide synthesis limit the achievable library size to a few thousand. A strategy is presented based on combinatorial pairing of short peptides via disulfide linkage that enables the generation and ...

Well-Tempered MetaDynamics based method to evaluate universal peptidomimetics [PDF]
, 2018 Peptidomimetics are a broad family of compounds designed to mimic the main structural features of peptides, avoiding their metabolic drawbacks. In particular, universal peptidomimetics use only peptide side-chain analogs to mimic different secondary ...

Backbone Steric Constraints Underlie High Passive Membrane Permeability of N‐Alkyl Peptides
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Beyond amide hydrogen removal, steric constraints encoded in N/Cα‐dually substituted backbones are uncovered as a key determinant of passive membrane permeability in N‐alkyl peptides. These constraints restrict conformational freedom and sterically limit backbone hydration during membrane permeation.

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.We present a foldamer strategy to downsize the histone H3‐H4 quaternary structure into high‐affinity, medium‐sized binders (∼2 kDa) for the histone chaperone ASF1. Our peptide‐oligourea chimeras, designed through structure‐guided optimization and foldamer chemistry, recapitulate the natural H3‐H4 dimer binding mode while demonstrating plasma stability ...

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Peptide‐to‐Small Molecule Paradigm: Peptidomimetics have evolved from simple mimicry toward drug‐like scaffolds supported by increasing clinical successes. This Perspective highlights the geometric design principles—linear repetition, convergent fusion, and cyclization—defining the next‐generation peptidomimetic architectures capable of targeting ...

Polyproline: A Synthetic Polypeptide With Unique Properties
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Poly‐L‐proline is a unique polypeptide distinguished by its well‐defined secondary structures and unusual thermal behavior. This mini review highlights recent advances in the synthesis of poly‐L‐proline by N‐carboxyanhydride (NCA) polymerization, the formation of structurally defined architectures and nanostructures, and emerging strategies that ...

Isocyanide-based multicomponent reactions towards cyclic constrained peptidomimetics
Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2014 In the recent past, the design and synthesis of peptide mimics (peptidomimetics) has received much attention. This because they have shown in many cases enhanced pharmacological properties over their natural peptide analogues.
